    Comments about JanSport Big Student Day Pack:

    My daughter uses this backpack for school. It's "cool" but functional. The large size enables her to fit all of her books and supplies. The straps adjust and are very padded for extra comfort. The material has lasted. We only replaced it because the bottom was showing a bit of wear after two school years. It would have lasted a little longer with a good wash.

    It's a great backpack. At first we thought it was too small just by looking at it but my son can actually put all of his books in it.

      I got this bag for my high school-age daughter. She loves it for the color/design, the comfort of the straps and the fact that it has two big pockets (along with the small front one) so she doesn't have to stuff her lunch and extra clothes in with her books anymore.

                  I purchased this for my daughter at her request. I am practical and didn't want to spend the money for a school book bag...however, in comparing it to the cheaply made bag that my son chose there is actually no comparison. This is quality all the way through. Our ONLY complaint is that there is no water bottle pocket on the side...but the bag is very much worth the cost. The zipper on my son's cheap bag broke the first day. The Jansport is great!!

                        A:

                        Washing machines will put a lot of stress on the seams. Instead of washing in a machine I would hose wash and line dry.

                        The Jansport Big Student Day Pack is not waterproof. Heavy rain will eventually leak fhrough the pack and affect any items within.
