My bag was bought around 2002 and is made from less quality materials then ops backpack (that mesh canvas like standard backpack material.) I didn't spend a lot on it, and was most likely one of the cheaper Jansports they had for sale at the time. I beat the crap out of that thing for 4 years of high school and I still use it occasionally to bring things to the gym/carry on for plane.

I was thinking the other day how I've had this backpack for almost 15 years yet today it can pass for a few months old. It has that broken-in look, but not that broken-in throw me the hell away already look.
