JanSport Superbreak Plus Backpack Black

This bag is a good size for a school backpack. I say the quality is on par with what you pay for - solid mid range with a good variety of classic colours. I wanted something simple that matched any outfit my son wore and wasn’t too childish once he outgrew a phase. I got the dark red and it was true to colour. Zippers are good quality. The model up from this uses actual leather and a higher grade poly but for the price point I’d say it’s on par. I’d say for this size it’s good for a great 1/2 and up!

I have been using Jansport's backpacks for almost 2 decades now, and I am deeply disappointed in this last purchase. I wanted to substitute a red "Right Pack" and this time chose the basic "Superbreak". I loved the Viking Red of my previous backpack, but the RUSSET RED I got this time is outrageous!!!! It is not a real red, it's a deep, dark magenta. Horrible! The WHITE LINING is also horrible! The water bottle POCKET is also to small to fit my regular 32 oz. Hydroflask. This pocket should be big enough to hold this or other bottles. I am very disappointed in these design mistakes. The material has changed and seems low quality. I've always had a Jansport but this backpack is definitely not in the same caliber and quality.Beware! I'm returning this right away!

I wanted to replace my girlfriend's old Jansport that was falling apart and we were extremely disappointed in the quality and color. It just feels cheap and the inside is a BRIGHT white, which doesn't go with anything at all and is so ugly. Sounds like they're saving themselves money bc there are other ways to be environmentally friendly honestly. Really bad choice IMO. I'm returning it and going with another company that's more aesthetically pleasing and has better canvas material/quality, which is too bad bc I really liked Jansport before and wanted to continue that.
