Amazon Basics Backpack for School Study Travel Durable Classic Design Book Bag Black

Simple standard size bookbag/backpack. No markings or stickers except for one small AmazonBasics tag. Feels exactly like a jansport or eastpak brand backpack. I have carried it around with me on hikes and when i run out of the house and need tools to take along with me. Some AmazonBasics items are "meh", but this is one of the better/best items i have bought from the AmazonBasics line. If you need a simple plain backpack that will get the job done and save yourself some money, then this is the one! Read more

This is a fantastic value for a classic school backpack. It's not fancy, but it's reliable, roomy and built to last. I would recommend it for any student who needs a sturdy, simple bag without any extra frills. The zipper works well without getting stuck like our old one. It feels nice and thick looks like it will last a long time. Read more

I’ve had this backpack since January 2018 and intended to use it for college classes since I needed a smallish backpack that could carry books and things and keep my laptop safe. This did the trick nicely. The pack as a small zipper pocket inside above the laptop sleeve where I put a charger and headphones and the sleeve is where I put my chrome book. The pack also has these two pockets on the inside that are perfect for putting my wallet and phone into or even a water bottle or monster (sealed) in to keep it from just falling into the large compartment which is what I hated about the jansport bag, it had no pockets or organization just one big area for you to throw everything. This bag also has to pencil/pen slots inside where I put a sharpie and a pilot g2. The exterior side pockets are awesome and have a strip of hook and loop that keep them shut. These are perfect for your keys but can only fit a standard plastic water bottle no thermo flasks or anything sizable. The front zip pocket is devoid of internal dividers or pockets and works well. The bag itself is durable and seems to handle a beating. The handle and straps are sturdy and well padded. About 10 months ago I transitioned this to my work bag and it holds up to hospital life well. I squeeze it in and out of lockers and cram it full of stuff to survive my 12 and sometimes 16 hour shifts, like lunch, deodorant, spare toothbrush and paste, cologne spare socks and underwear, spare pair of scrubs, charger, headphones, water bottle, keys, pens etc. and it always has more space for whatever I need on top of that. It’s awesome and hasn’t torn or ripped anywhere. Can’t say enough about this product just buy one for commuting at least and you’ll love it too. Read more

Bought this backpack because I needed a last minute replacement before the beginning of classes. I have never really bought anything from Amazon's own brand so I can gladly say that this is my first Amazon Basic purchase and I am really happy with it. First thing I noticed was how great the actual backpack looks and feels. But one of the main things I want to point out is the quality and build of this backpack. In my opinion Amazon made a great product for a really affordable price. It's very comparable to other brand name backpacks that of course come with a higher price tag. Another thing that I really like is the space and pockets that this bag provides. The inside of the bag has two front pockets, two pencil holders, and a laptop pouch. Like I said before I bought this backpack on a whim and didn't really get to look at its features so I was very very surprised to see that it included a laptop pouch AND side bottle holders! The only thing that I am not a fan of but will obviously get used to it is the shape of the bag. It is not like normal backpacks that are kind of an oval-like shape. The shape that you see the backpack in the picture is pretty much the said shape of the backpack. It doesn't "sag" like other bags do and looks a bit awkward while you are wearing it since the bag never really flattens, but don't let this discourage you from making this purchase. If you are looking for a backpack that is cheap, durable, has a laptop pouch, and is of good quality? Then I recommend you stop right here and purchase this backpack from Amazon. Read more

I bought this 7 years ago because it was cheap and I figured I couldn't lose at that price. It's still going strong now. It's a pretty nice size too - I can use it to carry a variety of things from books to grocery shopping and it seems to have a bit more room than previous backpacks. But it's not huge. So it's great for any kind of daily activities but if you're looking to pack for a trip you might look for something a tad bigger. But I don't think you can go wrong with it regardless. Seven years of constant use and it's still doing well. You don't see that often these days. Then again, I might have been lucky. Read more
