About JanSport
That everyone owned a JanSport backpack at some point in school isn't an accident - the brand has been the default backpack for generations of students, built around a lifetime-warranty reputation for durability. It sells mostly bags and backpacks direct, with apparel as a secondary line. Returns come with a free prepaid FedEx label, which is more generous than most backpack brands offer.
Just know refunds can take up to three weeks to actually post, so don't expect fast turnaround even though the return itself is free and simple.
What they sell
- Classic school backpacks like the SuperBreak
- Laptop and travel backpacks
- Duffel bags and totes
- Hoodies and casual apparel
