Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I ordered this backpack two years ago and never reviewed it. The reason I'm reviewing it now is that I've just decided to order a second one. Not because anything has happened to the first, but because of how well the first has held up. My boyfriend and I are frequent travellers and we always use backpacks. We stuff them full and heavy and expect them to hold up for our entire trip. My backpack (which was fuchsia and black a color no longer carried) has held up to 8 to 10 different vacations where we normally visit 8 states or more in each trip. It's been stuffed under plane seats, stored as checked baggage, stored in overhead compartments, been through countless security checkpoints and thrown in so many trunks and back seats. It's survived the extreme heat of an Arizona summer and the cold wet of an Outer Banks winter (not so freezing but still wet and sandy). I'm writing this review now because I'm about to pack it again for another 8 state 10 day trip and I realized that we needed a second one. My boyfriend has gone through at LEAST 5 backpacks (I remember that two were Jansport and one was an expensive Swiss Gear backpack). The zippers always break or snag. Every zipper on my backpack works just fine. So I decided enough with the crappy backpacks that always frustrate him so much and I looked up my 2 year old Amazon order and purchased him one exactly like mine but in black. He's a little harder on his stuff but if mine has held up to being battle tested over the last two years then hopefully his will at least last him a few trips. Side note, when I bought this backpack it was cheaper, but I'm buying a second one at a higher price because I am so sold on this pack. It has never given me one issue (knock on wood). The photo I'm including was taken moments ago. This is an actual photo of my two year old backpack. The neon yellow is a little dingy after being used for two years but I promise that's the only wear on the thing. I DID NOT recieve any discount on EITHER backpack. I'm just hoping nothing about the manufacturing of the pack has changed in the last two years. If anything on the new one gives after this next trip I'll come back and update my review, but for now 5 stars all the way.
