Teton Suspension System!, February 28, 2008
This review is from: Teton Bookbag Backpack (Sports)
I decided to order this Teton (designed by Coleman) backpack based on the glowing reviews seen here and I have to agree with them all.
There's so much room to rent in this bag that you can lose items within it without even knowing the items are in there. I'm talking of items such as a DVD or even a CD wallet! It's roomy and it expands! It includes straps to keep it all securely tied together. It has super heavy duty zippers like I have never seen before in my 50+ years.
The "Suspension System" is an unusual feature in backpacks which I was curious about. Mystery revealed, at the top of both of the backstraps, is a system constructed of a piece of strong elastic and nylon strap. The elastic will stretch slightly when the backpack is subjected to a heavy load and jolts such as when walking down stairs. The nylon strap which accompanies the elastic will not stretch, so this will limit the amount of stretch in the elastic! Genious! I like it.
This is such an amazing backpack, and I am so happy with this purchase, that I want to look for things around the house and neighborhood to carry in this bag! You'll find it fun and comfortable to carry all of your stuff around in it too!
P.S. This backpack in black or red is currently $24, but in blue is $12. I like the blue one!

its a Steal for the deal, April 24, 2008
This review is from: Teton Bookbag Backpack (Sports)
I got this item for college stuff, i already have a big hefty laptop bag, but i dont carry my laptop everyday, so was looking for a small, light bag for everyday use and this is it.
--Pros:
- light weight
- sturdy
- excellent quality zippers,
- plenty of space, i can actually carry my 15.4" laptop in here too
- looks trendy
- has shoulder suspension
- has a belt to squeeze the bag if u dont have it filled completely, making it easy for carrying
- the best part, its cheap (i got blue one for 12.99 shipped)
-- Cons:
- none actually, only thing i found missing was a water bottle net on the outside.. but thats not a big deal for me..
I totally recommend this bag for school/college going crowd.

Rough and Touch.!, March 28, 2008
We have been through 3 backpacks this year. Each one we buy has fallen apart. I have a son, who likes to run, jump and play. He's 9 and his backpacks take a beating. I ordered this one because of the price, since we seem to go through so many. I am REALLY impressed. This is a heavy duty bag, it is standing up to my Sons daily use and abuse perfectly. We have only had it for a couple of months but it still looks new. I also love the suspension straps on each side of the bag. Perfect for smaller lockers, so you can cinch it in and make it smaller yet its easy to adjust for when he has more stuff to carry. It is also easy enough to adjust that my son does it on the fly. Great bag, if your on the fence about getting it..I highly recommend it.
