My 13yodd is into green as well however this yr for 7th she got a navy backpack.
The green is pretty so I won't argue that one.
To be honest, my preference is LL Bean over Jansport. So I vote LL Bean as my final answer overriding my vote.![]()
My 3 littlest have LLBean, but it doesn't stand the cool factor. I'm a pretty budget minded person, and we don't get backpacks every year, so ds11 has had his UA backback for 1 1/2 years now, and dd13 her messenger bag for 1 1/2, but as much as she wouldn't use a solid backpack, she'd like the plaid ones.
