2. JanSport

If your teen has ever owned a JanSport backpack you know they basically never wear out. This one, the JanSport Right Back Pack, is iconic and a best-seller for the brand.  It is available in 14 colors that all look fantastic with the suede bottom that makes this backpack unique. Comes with a 15″ sleeve to hold a laptop

3. L.L. Bean

L.L. Bean backpacks are legendary for their durability and design and we think this one, the Comfort Carry Laptop backpack, is a great option for it’s “ergonomic features… like a rigid back panel with extra foam padding and comfortable, breathable mesh straps to create optimum air flow.” The padded backpack sleeve is a key design feature that will help your teen keep their most valuable piece of electronics safe.

This is another popular backpack for teens and college students and this one, the Victorinox Altmont,  has a unique design with the laptop accessible through a fliptop  compartment.

5. Herschel

Take some time to look at the Herschel website to see all the choices they offer in sizes and shapes in their backpacks. Make sure to check out the “collections” for unique designs and, while you are on the site, take a look at the accessories and apparel that you won’t find anywhere else.

We are big fans of everything that Patagonia offers and think this highly-rated Arbor Classic Backpack is the one to consider if your teen or college kid needs to transport bulky books and gym clothes back and forth to class and sports practice.

Who wants to go to college with an inch of crumbs in the bottom of a grimy backpack? Consider the Fjallraven Kanken Backpack, created with inspiration from The Swedish Guide and Scout Association.
