I love these! Got one when I started college in 2011, and then used it to travel overseas with for 3 years, and now it’s my go to bag still for everyday hauling of stuff I need or going to the gym. Still looks great aside from a side pocket that’s stretched out a bit from a water bottle.
It only recently occurred to me that this is a BIFL item. I just assumed all backpacks should last this long, which is why I’ve been so upset that my kids go through so many backpacks every school year. I just though they were rough on them. I guess I’ll be buying these moving forward for them and seeing how that goes.
