The JanSport Cool Student backpack offers a large 34-liter capacity, making it a highly efficient organizer for those who need to carry books, gym clothes, and tech simultaneously. The primary body is made of 600 Denier Polyester, while the base is reinforced with a synthetic "vegan leather" material. This added layer at the bottom increases abrasion resistance, helping the bag withstand being placed on concrete or rough floors frequently.
For comfort, the bag uses S-curve shoulder straps with closed-cell foam. These are designed to resist "bottoming out" or flattening under pressure, helping to maintain a comfortable fit over time. The dual main compartments allow for easy segregation of items, keeping heavy books closer to the back for better weight distribution. The 15-inch laptop sleeve is located in the main compartment but lacks padding on the bottom edge, so setting the bag down gently is advised.
Specifications indicate that the side water bottle pocket can become tight when the internal compartments are fully packed. To ensure your bottle fits, it is helpful to pack the internal items loosely or use a slimmer bottle. The Faded Sage color is achieved through a standard dye process that maintains the fabric's strength while providing a modern, neutral look.
For a version with even more organizational pockets and an integrated USB charging port, the ProEtrade College Backpack is a highly functional alternative.
