We ordered these for our kids and so far, they are a huge hit. The handle is super easy to put up and down - the pack is spacious. We're looking forward to owning this for years to come.
I used to go through 2 backpacks a year with my daughter, who loves to load up her pack with lots of books. We purchased this one when she started 4th and now she's starting 6th and it still looks like new. The color is vibrant and it's held up great.
I bought this backpack when my son began first grade. He's now entering fifth grade, and with the exception of some small tears at the bottom of the outer pocket, this backpack is still going strong.
My son is incredibly rough on his stuff, so I am pretty impressed to see how well this backpack has stood up to his abuse. Though on the pricey side, it is well worth it. I just ordered this exact backpack for his little brother.
This bag was incredible for my daughter last year! Usually, I have to buy at least two school bags during the year because they fall apart so quickly. The LL Bean bag was a little more expensive, but she used it all year long and it's still in good shape! Wow, I'm sold!
