They're a alright brand that you see everywhere, but you get what you pay for. If you want durability, look somewhere else. If you want something cheap for the semester, it's fine. If you like the Scandi style, go with Sandqvist, I've had this Stig for 10+ years and it's holding up perfectly, but they've unfortunately discontinued it or I would buy a second one.

the rband is overpriced and overrated, they were good 20 years ago. and that one in particular is meant for women or gays, you do you

They should just remove that stupid circle and letters and leave the fox. It could be a good looking, simple logo like apple.

I have the mini and I think it is only acceptable with the shoulder padding (cost extra), without them the straps dig in too much

You are in fact a literal moron who knows zero about actual good design cues. Zero is about the number of sacks they would sell if they were to take your pathetic advice b-t-w. Utterly plebeian take. Not only should they leave the lettering, but they should also screenprint the care instructions, materials labels etc in extra large typeface in whatever Scandinavian language that is on the outside of the bag Fillyjilly-Krankinrave execs, if u are reading this: please feel free to take this consultancy as an open source idea and run with it, with absolutely no fees owing to yours truly whatsoever. You’re welcome. I am just very passionate at what i do and my most cherished reward of all is simply making this world a better more effay place.

No. It's least logo-like logo. No logo is best, but a simple logo is 2nd best.

expensive and faggot looking , just go for the classic jansport

They're well made and the base fabric is very strong and long lasting but the design is intended for swedish school kids from the 70's and hasn't been updated since then.

You'll find a lot of shortcomings using this as an adult, like the side pockets being too narrow to take a thermos, there's no shoulder or back padding and the straps are stitched directly to the back so heavy loads will be uncomfortable, you can do better for the money.

I had a superbreak while in High school.

I found one at Value Village for $3. Pretty sure it's a fake, but it reminds me of the Jansport Superbreak I used to have in high school.
