Product Description

Can you imagine a world without backpacks? Neither can we. Yet it wasn't long ago that they were strictly outdoor gear. One fall in the late sixties, the JanSport team heard that students were using the brand's small cross country daypacks to cross campus instead. It made sense with comfortable padded straps, and easy access front panel opening and catch resistant nylon zippers the bags were just as great for carrying books as they were for carrying gear. Seeing the potential the team made a few notebook worthy design adjustments including the addition of a durable vinyl base to improve weight capacity. Soon after, JanSport began selling the first ever campus backpacks into college bookstores around the country.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great alternative to a purse!, March 7, 2008

I hate purses. Scratch that. I love purses! I hate to carry them. I used to spend a couple of thousand dollars each year on purses that eventually sat in the closet. I am not a super-active person, but I like to walk a lot, do some inline skating, etc. I hate that with a purse, I have to hold it in a hand or, if it is on my shoulder, I have to continually push it back up onto my shoulder. I don't have free use of both hands and arms. And, if there is too much in it, I get neck and shoulder pain quite easily.

Okay, enough whining. On to the product. This is the perfect alternative to a purse for me. It is small, but has enough room for my KindleKindle: Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device in it's case, my wallet, a small water bottle, some lotion, lip gloss, gate opener, keys, kleenex, phone, and a couple of pens. The straps are long enough to wear with a fleece jacket on and I am 5'10". There is no padding on the straps, which I like, because it looks less like I'm about to head out to the outback when I am going to dinner. It is also easy to sling both straps over one shoulder if I am just running in somewhere and back out. The seperate pouch isn't neary so prounounced as it looks in the picture (it blends much more nicely) and is great for carrying keys and lip gloss and small items that I may need quickly. It can also be thrown in a washing machine to clean. I plan to buy more in some different colors for summer.

These are the cutest daypacks. They are great for pre-school kids, women, and anyone with too much stuff for their pockets.

Perfect size for my 4 yr. old daughter who will attend pre-k in Sep.It holds a "Mead" composition book,crayons,extra outfit,etc. and ofcourse the price is unbelievable (for $5.97 ea.)!I gave it 4 stars because the straps are thin as opposed to padded so don't overpack!Superfast shipping;overall,great deal!
