I chosed this bag cause i know about Dakine products and for the color pattern . It arrived early then it said it would The material was different then expected. It seemed a little thin or at least cheaply made. The arms to me lack padding i dnt know if this will last me thru Nursing school. The rest of the body of the bag is thin like a Jansport bag. Ive had Dakine backpack before and buying this back for $48 got me thinking if i made the right choice. My old Dakine bag was way more solid made then the one i have now. What i received is a $20 bag not a near $50. I am still thinking bout returning it.
