Backpack JanSport SuperBreak One Happy Hearts Backpack

It wasn't that long ago that students went to school with briefcases in hand. It wasn't that long ago that the alternative to carrying study material this way was simply carrying textbooks in your arms. One day, however, students at the University of Washington discovered JanSport backpacks, which have now protected all of our books and publications from the rain for more than half a century.

But the roots of JanSport aren't so much college campuses, but mountains. JanSport founder Murray Pletz won a design award in the 1960s for his design of an aluminum frame backpack. Following his success, Murray made a bet with his girlfriend Jan that if he could make the frame into a backpack design that would be successful, he would name his new brand after her. Well, a tiny spoiler in the form of the now well-known brand name suggests to you that she succeeded.

The core values of the JanSport brand are quality, long-term reliability, sustainability, and function. Founded in 1967, the brand no longer focuses on the product itself, but also on supporting the tourism community in many ways. You can have a full-size travel companion with a history on your back that can happily carry everything you need for your expedition.
