Jansport Messenger Bags for College

Jansport Messenger Bags Last and Last

 When I started college in 1998, I was not allowed to move my car from one side of the campus to another when changing classes. To be able to carry everything I needed for my classes, I purchased a JanSport Messenger Bag.

I have problems with my shoulders, so having to sling a backpack onto my back was painful. The messenger bag solved my problem, since it had a handle on top that I could use to carry it. I loved the bag.

All my books and supplies fit into it without trouble, which included a small stapler and single page hole-punch, as well as the obligatory textbooks, spirals, pens, pencils, and calculator.

The bag was made out of heavy canvas. When I finished my undergraduate degree in 2003, my daughter needed a college bag. I gave the bag to her, and she used it for a few years, then gave it back when she no longer needed it.

Now, my husband uses it for a laptop bag when we travel. The zippers all still work, the mesh is not torn, and with a quick wipe with a wet cloth, the bag looks as good as it did when I was still in college.

Carrying a backpack with all

the books and class supplies

you need can cause back,

neck, and shoulder pain!
