I still have a hunter green L.L. Bean bookbag that has lasted since my sophomore year of high school (2005-2006) to my first year of law school (2013-2014).

Jansport from first grade to senior year at LSU.

There will also be a lot of LL Bean, North Face, and whatever company made those God damn rolling school bags (it may have been Jansport).

It's booksack.

And yeah, jansport.

In 8th grade I thought it would be cool to have one of the mesh see-through ones, until I realized that you couldn't just throw pencils and pens into the front pouch and had to keep them in a pencil bag. That and it had no definition so the books would get all out of place and jab you when you were trying to go to class.
