Choose Your Adventure and Your Backpack

Do you remember what it felt like to own your first backpack? We’ve all been there. It’s kind of like getting our first bike — we consider it an important rite of passage and it symbolizes the start of something new — a new school, a new opportunity, a new adventure.

Our backpacks are our companions throughout life, and through all these years (since 1967, in fact) one company has been responsible for pioneering the backpack.

Jansport, the celebrity of backpacks, takes pride in leading the pack (pun intended) for intrepid explorers and believes adventure is everything and everywhere. From climbing mountain peaks in Nepal to the simple daily commute to school or work, Jansport’s mission is to outfit you with the perfect pack for your journey.

Where will your Jansport take you? Here’re a few places our Jansport is taking us.

Have you been looking for an all-purpose, high activity backpack polished in all that’s urban and classic? Look no further. The Iron Sight Laptop Backpack ($69.90) allows you to take several of your interests with you and pack them all up into one single pack. Whether your squad has decided to climb Everest or you’ve decided to do a group yoga sesh in the park after work, go ahead, pack your mat and take all your gear with you anywhere you go!

Blaze your own trail with this supportive, lightweight pack. The Watchtower Laptop Backpack ($89.90) is ready for everyday excursions and is versatile enough for those unexpected destinations. We love it because it can easily carry your laptop, books, and school supplies OR keep you mobile and organized on a weekend getaway with 2-3 nights of clothes, supplies, and tech gadgets.

A pack totally committed to satisfying your outdoor cravings and designed to meet your needs on the daily. Biking to work? Perfect. Studying on campus? Beautiful. This daypack has a padded sleeve for your 15-inch laptop or you could use it as a hydration system when trekking tough terrain. The Hatchet Backpack ($59.90) is practical and functional yet 100 percent dapper and durable.

I bought this bag 5 years ago for business travel. I am a platinum level flyer every year so this bag has seen hundreds of thousands of miles and unbelievably, it looks as good today as it did new.

Everyone’s Best Friend

I would introduce you, but surely the two of you have already met. The ultimate classic pack, also known as the Big Student Backpack ($45.90), (even though we think it should be called the Not Just For Students Backpack*) is versatile enough to accompany you anywhere you wish to unleash! Take it with you to Hangout Fest this weekend, bring it to the park, or adventure off to the movies and take your pal with you.
