When I was in school in the 80s-90s I pretty much nevvvverrrr saw kids reusing bags for multiple years.
I think cheap bags were just crappier back then
But even the Jansports seemed to get replaced. I think kids were just rougher on their bags back then. I remember my bags absolutely bulging with 4-5 big hardbound textbooks. Don't see that much any more.
- TimTheTinker 3y agoCheap Jansport backpack zippers didn't last long.
- JohnBooty 3y agoStitching-related zipper failure, or the zipper itself? I feel like stitching in general is where Jansports fail first.... you have to abuse them pretty hard to wear out the material or bust a zipper directly, but the stitching on Jansports is not amazing. Don't get me wrong... the price/performance/durability of Jansports is INSANE but they maybe are venerated a little too hard

- devilbunny 3y agoThey did, but you had to do without for a few weeks while they replaced it.
