JanSport Logo
JanSport’s goal is to design, engineer, manufacture and market products that will help you get from point A to point B in the most functional way possible. Consistently incorporating flexibility and functionality into their bag designs, JanSport understands that the backpack you use during the day to carry your books could very well be the same backpack you take hiking with you on the weekends.

The story of JanSport bags and apparel begins in 1967 with three friends and their love for the outdoors. Jan Lewis, Murray Pletz and Skip Yowell lived in Seattle when they created their first framepack and the first panel loading daypack. Murray had just won a design contest for "The Best New Use of Aluminum" for the framepack the trio had fabricated in the transmission shop of Skip's uncle. Once climbers on Mount Rainier and other Northwest peaks saw the new pack, they wanted one for themselves. The rest is JanSport history.

The success of JanSport’s packs reaches across the globe and into various walks of life. For nearly 40 years, JanSport has provided world class bags and apparel that can take you anywhere and everywhere. Celebrating outdoor enthusiasts from the casual walker to the mountain climber, JanSport’s packs and apparel have got your back.

I have a jansport backpack from 2002 that is still kicking. After my daughter ripped through multiple other backpacks, we’re going back to the brand I trust.

Great quality, just like how I remember Jansport backpacks when I was a kid! My kiddos loves the print and it fits him perfectly oversized, which makes sense because he’s four years old. We bought a regular sized backpack because he has a lot of stuff to bring to school and needs the extra room.

My daughter loves this mini backpack. Pretty spacious considering it’s size and it’s comfortable. Color is very cool. Typical Jansport material, so I’m sure it will wear well.

A perfect sized bag for day outings. Easily holds essentials including a water bottle and light jacket. Long adjustable straps. I found it very comfortable while hiking.

This backpack is perfect for a day trip! It appears small, which is great, but I can fit a sweatshirt, water bottle, sun screen, small wallet, phone, and any other small neccesities with no issues. I do wear the straps all the way extended placing the pack perfectly in the center of my back. Very comfortable and lightweight. I forget I am wearing it most of the time!

I purchased this bag to use instead of a purse. I found the straps to be a bit uncomfortable on my neck - which was the only real negative, but it's a big one. The size just right for my purpose- carry the essentials without a lot of bulk. I am still deciding if I will keep this or not due to the straps .

Fabric was perfect! Quality was perfect! Style was perfect! It was just what I wanted/needed for a small handy backpack. Fits my makeup, glasses, sweater/jean jacket, and some sandals/sneakers! More solid colors please!!

This half pint is a perfect size say for a child/adult. My daughter used it for when we traveled out of town & found it very convenient. Especially for what she was taking. She also used it for a hiking trip & stated its so light weight. Now she uses it as a purse. She says its comfy, very stylish & just perfect on the size. The fabric & print is AWESOME! We're very happy with this Jansport half pint! :) TYVM Zappos for making it possible by having them available!

My 12 year daughter just got the Jansport multi stickers half pint mini backpack for her birthday. My 14 year old daughter had gotten a black one for her birthday this past May. They both LOVE them!!! When we went to Disneyland over the summer it was the perfect size to carry a water bottle, lightweight sweatshirt and a few small snacks in. My girls take them with them everywhere. They are the roomy, comfortable and stylish. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a small backpack to take a few things with them. They are especially useful for amusement parks, field trips, etc. Also makes a cute alternative to a purse.

It's a cute little small bag. If you looking for something maybe for yourself or your young children for a class trip to carry lunch and little stuff. This would be nice.
