submitted byNelly - 3 months agoA: This backpack is almost too big for my first grader. He has to latch the chest strap or the shoulder straps slide off constantly. It will fit a 4th grader perfectly.

Loved how cute this was, unfortunately we are only two months into 2nd grade and the strap is ripping already. The plastic chest clip broke as well. We have bought cat & jack backpacks previously, but this one is not holding up whatsoever. Very disappointed.

Cute, girly, and perfect for school
My daughter loves this backpack and she is very picky with her things. She just started Kindergarten, and as soon as she saw this, she loved it! I love the size and simplicity of it all, while still keeping it girly. The strawberries keep it girly of course. Good value too! Didn’t break the bank.

Cheap
Just like everyone else said, quality is crap. Super cute but very cheaply made, wouldn’t waste your money. Only got it because it went viral on TikTok

Horrible Quality
Bought the leopard backpack and my child started school at the beginning of August and by September 24th it is fraying everywhere and there’s already a hole in the water bottle pocket. This is my 3rd year purchasing a cat and jack backpack and this quality is the absolute worst!

The backpack is very cute but it’s unraveling all around the bag. The ties on the zipper started first.

Cat & Jack bag review
The quality is not that good. I washed the bag, and the color is fading, even though the child has not taken the bag to school for a month. That is the only fault I have with the bag

backpack
This is a great backpack with lots of pockets. It has two side pockets and two front zipper pockets for storage with a nice big zipper in the back to store all your little ones goodies and another pocket. There's a sticker on the inside to write who the backpack belongs to. It's a comfortable fit and great design. Great price and quality!

Bad quality this year
We buy these every year for our kids. This year they are garbage. 1 week into school and entire back of bag ripped at the seam. Just waiting for the other kids bag to rip at this point.

Very cute but falling apart after one month of school for my kindergartener. She only carries a sweater and two folders in it.
