This JanSport is a nice change for a guy who always uses black backpacks.  The quality is excellent--durable and beautifully made.  This pack is good and sturdy for books.  The color is sharp--navy with gray trim, so it is easy to separate from other packs my son uses for sports.  He is very hard on backpacks and still had the last JanSport for years.

Another plus on Amazon, most of these are free shipping with Amazon Prime, and some of the colors are lower prices.  We saved over $25 on this from the retail price we had seen locally.  Two thumbs up from our house!
