Where to find a NICE Backpack

[rollagasper]

I want a nice backpack for school, but don't know where to find one. I'm thinking of a army-ish cloth material backpack. I've seen shoulder sling ones like that but those styles always hurt my shoulders, since i have so many text books to carry.
Does anyone have any ideas on stylish bags for school?

I just have a black North Face one. I holds a lot and I too carry many books around. A lot of kids at my school have them. i havnt really tried anything else. So I would recomend that.

There's some men's backpacks at Urban Outfitters:

Those are very good quality. Other than that...I'm going through the same problem too!

puma makes sturdy backpacks... they hold alot of sports gear and school books and come in lots of different colors, and sizes

I own several backpacks incl. Nike, Jansport, Obus Forme, Miu Miu and some no name brands from HK

Personally, I find Obus Forme the most sturdy AND comfortable. Nothing is more important than a comfortable backpack, and I, too carry textbooks and my laptop around campus which is EXTREMELY heavy!

I suggest Obus Forme, cheap, sturdy, comfy and they have many styles so I'm sure you might find one you like (dunno about the camo pattern though)

Hope this helps!

APC has some really nice looking backpacks.. They're $100+ though, and I'm not sure of the quality.

Jansport, though plain looking, has a lifetime warranty for their backpacks, and will replace one that is broken: http://jansport.com/js_warranties.php

there's nothing like a black nylon prada...

Triple Five Soul makes bags with army-inspired materials. I have a khaki backpack from them that's sturdy, comfortable, and different from the standard Jansport. You can find 555 soul at their website, karmaloop, and ebags if you're interested.
