Great quality
Great quality, my daughter had the same backpack but smaller size for 3 years and it looks like new except a little dirt. We purchased the same item but bigger size this time.

Loved it but it started ripping in 6 weeks
I ordered this bag for my 4th grader. It was great to start. Within 6 weeks the lining started ripping and has continued to rip making the bag unusable and it’s not even half way thru the year. Not worth The money.

Good Quality. Smaller than I expected when compared to other brands
My 5 year old had a cat and jack brand back pack (which was wearing out) so decided to give this one a try. Both were from target and they both were 16 inch back packs, but this one is actually quite a bit smaller. So even though the lengths were the same the actual overall size is a little smaller than most backpacks rated for elementary. I do like that it does have two side pockets for water bottles.

School backpack
This is great size backpack. It’s durable and easy to zip for smaller kids. We love the color. The side pocket holds water bottles. There are different zipper areas to store things in the backpack.

Nice bag
This backpack is nice has one large zipper compartment and a front small zipper to put small stuff or snacks. And has two bottle pockets on sides. My son loved it until one of the zipper loop came off on the first day of use. Definitely it should be more sturdy for this price point. If they improve their quality than I will recommend it

LOTTA SPARKLE!
This backpack is more sparkly than it looks online, which the recipient LOVED! Looks great with the monogram, and I hope she will use it for many years.

Sturdy!
Bought one last year for my 3rd grade granddaughter and she loved it so got another different color this year. Well made and lasted being dragged, thrown and pulled on.

Great!
Just bought it last week, but I love the medium size for my 2nd grader- it's not too big. Seems very durable and is adorable!

Always an excellent choice!
We come back year after year to Lands End for the perfect backpack. Both of my kids have their favorite styles. My middle schooler is still able to easily use the Large size.

Perfect in-between size, small exterior pouch
Love this excellent quality backpack. It's the perfect size for my petite kindergartener. Furthermore, the interior has space for a full size folder and lunch box. And the fabric and it's bright colors have held up well to repeat washings. My only complaint is that the size of its exterior pocket, which I like to use to pack convenient school snacks, is very small and shallow. One cannot zip it shut with a lot of standard size Tupperware inside or multiple snacks. I wish the manufacturer would increase the pocket size to match the size of it's larger backpacks.

Straps breaking after only 60 days of school
I bought this for my kindergartener who carries a folder, water bottle and a light sweatshirt in it. Just noticed today the one strap is coming apart at the seams. My child has only had about 60 days of school and hardly any weight in it and it is ripping. I expected better from Land’s End. I had been hoping to be able to use the backpack for more than one year considering he isn’t carrying textbooks and it sits in a cubby all day. Now I am hoping to get one year out of it.

Just okay.
Gets the job done but not great quality. I can’t imagine this is going to hold up the whole year

Best lunch kit we’ve found! Love the “zip around” opening.

Cute backpacks, poor construction
My son loves these designs, but the backpacks and not high quality. We've bought 2 and both times the zipper has broken within days to months of use. Landsend has been great about refunding/replacing, but its not worth it to go through the hassle repeatedly.

Zipper broke within 6 months
I purchased this in December, my 8 year old used it for about 6 months. The zipper on the main large compartment broke. I reached out for a replacement, but unfortunately the company only stands behind the quality of their products for 90 days. After that, if it's defective you can't get a replacement, and it costs money to return it. Other companies have a one year warranty and even after that they allow you to return defective items for a replacement because they stand behind their products. Bummer. My kiddo really liked this one.
