Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I've had good luck with the Jansport lifetime warranty, hopefully they can keep it going for you!
- I still have my Jansport from HS (bought in 1995) and currently use it as a laptop bag. It was only sent it in once for repair once when the bottom seam starting ripping.
- When it was time for a diaper bag, I got another Jansport backpack.
- The rest of the bag is in great condition - no rips, tears, and zipper functions just fine.
- And from my experience with Jansport, while in school, their backpacks are typically well made and last for a long time.
Cons
- Overall I'd say if laptop protection is a significant factor for you, Jansport may not be the way to go.
- These were like the Jansport of the 2000s.

if they can’t replace it they usually send you a 40$ voucher. I’ve sent 3 or 4 bags in and no issues any time.
ive sent one back for regular wear and tear and they sent me a new one!
I’ve sent two in and received them back repaired. They are great backpacks for school!
