So I used the same bag from freshman year in high school until the middle of this year in high school. It was time to get a new bag, and after recommendations to buy an under armor bag, I settled on this one. It's very sturdy and carries a lot of weight. It's a little bit taller than it needs to be, and it could've been a little wider, but so far I've been able to fit everything I've needed to. There are 2 drink holders-one on each side. I use one for water and one for my coffee thermos, and it works out great. There are 4 zipper pockets and the main one has a hidden zipper pocket inside it. Also there is a laptop sleeve that fits my 13" mac perfectly. The bag looks very pleasing to the eye. I would highly recommend.
