I am a connoisseur of backpacks. I am VERY picky about my backpacks and it takes me forever to pick one out and then adjust to it. I've used a lot of different kinds and a lot of different brands and styles. I had never tried High Sierra before, but this backpack looked decent for the price so I decided to try it out. I recently started college after a 5 year break to start a family. This backpack is big enough to carry my college books and notebooks. I love that the pen-holder pocket has a built in organizer - it's got several little zippered pockets within the organizer too - perfect to hold staplers, white-out, index cards, etc. My planner fits in there perfectly. I like that this pocket opens up ALL THE WAY - it makes your junk easy to access. My favorite part is the key-ring attachment. It has a buckle so you put the buckle part on your key-ring, and then you can attach your keys inside the backpack so you don't have to hunt for them as you're freezing in the snow. Perfect! There is a soft zippered compartment on the top of the backpack in between the largest section and the middle section which is perfect for holding earbuds, phones, MP3 players, and I put my wallet in there too. It's nice because it's pretty well camouflaged in the backpack which makes your stuff harder to steal. The straps are extremely comfortable and the bag is very lightweight. This is probably the most comfortable bag I've ever used. The fabric seems very durable and heavy-duty. I like that it has 2 bottle holders - one for my water, one for my Diet Coke! One of the big pockets has a very small zipper opening, which I think is kinda dumb. It's still useful, but only for smaller books. The bag also smelled REALLY BAD when I first got it. I put some of those fabric softener pellets in it and it cleared up the scent after a few hours but it was really stinky. I also don't really care for the separate laptop compartment and wish it was detachable, but I don't carry my laptop with me anyway. Some backpacks are really big, which can sometimes be a pain as it gets more difficult to pull your stuff out with the fabric folding in on itself. This backpack is the perfect size and the fabric is thick enough that it doesn't flop all over itself. Overall, I LOVE this bag. It's sturdy, comfortable, and bright and cheerful (I have a color not listed here.) It's different than the 9,000 other bags on campus. It's the perfect size for all my junk and I love all the separate compartments to keep everything organized. I foresee it lasting for most of my college career, definitely. I used to be a fan of only JanSport bags. This bag pwns my JanSport by about 1,000 points. All hail High Sierra!

I love this backpack. It is very well-made, tough, and durable. It holds a lot, though I always need more space. Believe me though, it holds enough. There is not a lot of padding for the laptop compartment. It does fit my 15 inch laptop just fine though. Some people have commented about the zipper guards. Yes, they are kind of annoying, but they are there for a purpose! The zippers work fine. I lug around heavy textbooks all day, every day and the bag is holding up fine...no hint of a strap fraying or interior cloth ripping. You can't abuse the bag all the time and expect it to never fall apart, but I feel it would be pretty difficult to damage at least the exterior of this bag. The inner lining I could see getting torn if you are carelessly shoving lots of heavy, jagged items inside. I like the side compartments and the separate zipper compartments are good for keeping items separated and organized. I don't know too much about how water proof this is as I have not "tested" that or been caught in a downpour with the bag. I feel the main purpose for this particular bag is for a student, but it could be used for travel (like any bag could be). It has room for a change of clothes, a pair of shoes, your laptop, some toiletries and a few other personal items. This is a solid, durable, spacious, attractive backpack with a great price point. I would recommend to any student for sure. There are probably better options for hikers and travelers, but you could certainly "get by" with this one for those purposes too. ***Update: I have been using this backpack every day now for two years (both for college and personal use). It has seen heavy use and is still in great condition. All zippers still work well and there is no freeing or tearing on the inside nor outside. I would highly recommend this backpack. It is of great quality and very durable.

This backpack is freaking awesome. If you're looking for a backpack that can hold everything you need, this is it. I can fit EVERYTHING--all my notebooks, headphones, jacket, waterbottle, cords, containers, lunch, and extras (college student). Zippers are easy to move and don't get stuck. Please buy this. Waterbottle side holder a little small for my nalgene i just cut it

I'm 100% happy with it. Thanks Amazon.

Lasts so much longer than most backpacks!

Tough and too good. Excellent quality

This backpack came with a warning tag that it contains cancerous materials. Really, a cancerous material in kids product?

Tiene Una Gran Capacidad, aparte de que es muy bonita, ya había tenido una antes y realmente son resistentes no la cambie por que la anterior se rompiera si no por que me la robaron, excelente producto.
