Sturdy and organized

Bought this for my teenage son to use for school and he loves it. The side pockets are very sturdy and hold his water bottle well. Overall the backpack is very sturdy and protects his Chromebook, which I needed with my teenage boy that is hard on everything. He also appreciates the many pockets to keep everything organized.

Nalgene bottler
5 out of 5 stars review

Great for school or work

That one start review is wrong. You can fit books, lunch, and running shoes at the same time. It also will carry two standard 32 oz Nalgene bottles (even though the picture only has one). The small pouch is great for keeping my pens and school items organized and together. No gripes with it yet, but I am not sure how durable this fabric will be. I am typically pretty hard on my backpacks so I am curious to see how long it lasts, none the less, I would probably buy again.
