I bought one of these for our first grandson for his "car bag". It is now a requested item for each new grandchild. They are perfect and they will last for many years. Also, your customer service is superb!
After thinking and thinking about what to get my bridesmaids as a gift for my recent wedding I decided on LL Bean bags, my parents always had them, still do. And I have heard time and time again how great they were. I ordered 5 bags, all Large with the long handles, zip top and monogrammed with each girls name. I got each girl a different colour. I think the Zip top is a must have, it's great if the bag tips over or if you have things you don't want shown to everyone at the beach etc. I ordered the large with long handles because I have a Med with short handles and I am always packing it too full, not being able to zip it and finding it heavy, with the long handles you can fling it over your shoulder and go. All the girls enjoyed their gift, I wanted to get something that they would use and not just throw in a jewelry box and forget about. I would highly recommend this bag.
These bags are ideal for students. They are sturdy and the material is strong. They are also great for going to the beach. I have one myself and I have given my granddaughters each one.
