All this for so little? This book bag has features usually found on a pack twice the price. Two main compartment are big enough for a laptop or the largest text or notebooks. A third compartment has a ton of organizer pockets for pencils, calculator, keys, GPS, sticky notes, goodies, and yes, your iPod or MP3 player. Of course, we remembered the headphone port too. If 3 pockets isn't enough, we added a fourth mini-pocket for just about anything else. The shoulder straps include a very comfortable suspension strap system and are fully adjustable. The left shoulder strap has a cell pocket sewn onto it for quickie and easy access when you hear that custom ring. The zippers are heavy duty, will never break or snag and glide open and shut very smoothly.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I decided to order this Teton (designed by Coleman) backpack based on the glowing reviews seen here and I have to agree with them all.
There's so much room to rent in this bag that you can lose items within it without even knowing the items are in there. I'm talking of items such as a DVD or even a CD wallet! It's roomy and it expands! It includes straps to keep it all securely tied together. It has super heavy duty zippers like I have never seen before in my 50+ years.
The "Suspension System" is an unusual feature in backpacks which I was curious about. Mystery revealed, at the top of both of the backstraps, is a system constructed of a piece of strong elastic and nylon strap. The elastic will stretch slightly when the backpack is subjected to a heavy load and jolts such as when walking down stairs. The nylon strap which accompanies the elastic will not stretch, so this will limit the amount of stretch in the elastic! Genious! I like it.
This is such an amazing backpack, and I am so happy with this purchase, that I want to look for things around the house and neighborhood to carry in this bag! You'll find it fun and comfortable to carry all of your stuff around in it too!
P.S. This backpack in black or red is currently $24, but in blue is $12. I like the blue one!
