Thanks for sharing. I am big fan of Bratpack and i will certainly enter the competition
. Hopefully i will win something.
I am the type of person who never leaves the house without a bag, may it be going to work, to the supermarket, to the mall or simply a night out with friends. By that, I mean a big bag that can house all my basic essentials, from wallets and mobile phones to kikay stuff and extra shirts. Funny because my friends would tease me if I’ve got rocks inside my bag. I never give a damn. I don’t care what other people would think of me. I may look like a traveler all the time but it’s fine with me. I know my sturdy bag understands that I always want my things within reach, blame it to my “girl scout” mindset. My bag is not just my companion every time I carry it on my shoulders…it’s a part of my individuality that defines who I really am.
There are two experiences in my life that has been significant when talking about using Jansport bag. The first one was back when I was 12 when my parents had a really big fight. The tension was so intense that my mother and I had to pack our things and move out of the house for a while with my little brother. I remember using my classic red-maroon Jansport bag on our way to my lola’s house in Laguna. During the trip I was crying on one side of that bag while holding it. That’s why I was so surprised with this contest because that moment that I mentioned is something that I can’t forget.
The other story was when the first time that I was permitted to sleep overnight with my friends. That was when I was already a 4th year college student. Just imagine all those overnights that I missed before that day. I was really excited. It was an overnight swimming in Pansol with my college barkada. And of course, the bag that I was using was a black Jansport bag.
I super love my Jansport backpacks!
I recently purchased a messenger bag (Classic Messenger Ballistic Fabric S) from BratPack and instantly fell in love with it. I used to have an Oakley AP Pack but felt it was too large for me to lug around everyday.
I usually bring a spare shirt, a face towel, a windbreaker, a folding umbrella, a book (which I read to while my time), a water bottle, my lunch box, a maglight… whoa! wait a minute! it’s a lot to put into the messenger bag! but yeah! all of them fit into it and even managed to tuck inside a couple of folders from work!
Just recently I was in an event for our company and used my bag for my things and didn’t even felt tired of carrying it. The cross strap made it even more secure. Too bad I was not able to get a me a snapshot of it. Anyway, there’ll be more events coming and I promise to have me a pic or 2 with my beloved bag.
I’d just like to comment that when I saw the “Quality Shit” tag in the Timbuk2 Blog, I couldn’t find the tag in mine… and found out that it is only for SF-made bags. My bag was made in Vietnam and all I found was the “Made with Pride Worldwide” But then again, no doubt about it! I am proud to be having one of the best bags worldwide!
A heartful thanks to the guys (Timbuk2 & BratPack) who made my everyday bag-lugging a breeze!
i had always been an avid fan of Jansport backpacks. however, due to the nature of my work (requires an office-look bag) i was not able to enjoy using one.
but then again, i still have my daughters use jansport for their school bags. they are very sturdy and i don’t regret buying them the bag.
my youngest (7-yr old) daughter always borrows the jansport bags of her ate esp if she’s going somewhere requiring a good lug-along bag.
she esp. likes the pink jansport bag of her ate, which makes me think of buying one for herself too.
My mom gave me this Jansport backpack way way back. It’s huge and white. I didn’t like it cause it looks so big and just for boys.And back then,I didn;t know Jansport is like a little expensive.And so Im left with no choice but to wear it to school. So my classmates were like teasing me,”why do you carry those big backpack”.And I was very ashamed on it.But there came a time they’ve been in on school, so i was like”Ha! Im the first one who got them” ..Like a proud momma.
) I useit everytime me and my family go out of town.It has alot of use not just for school,but for everywhere. It’s really cute and useful in so many ways.
And since Jansport backpacks with cute patterns on it are so in trend right now for students.I am planning to buy one.So i google-d where i can find them. And here you are being an angel giving away a free backpack.:)
Thanks for this contest
jansport is love
puppy love-
my HS crush dons the military colored jansport bag. I identifed him because of the bag.
eye love-
I’m only able to stare at the bags while passing by the bratpack (manila branch). I’m always mesmerized by the colors and designs. It’s an eye candy!
sister love-
When I can finally afford to have one. I decided to give it to my sister for her 18th birthday. it’s the least that I could do. Everyday she struggles to carry her things at school (together with the laptop). With the bag that I gave her she carries all her things in just one “bitbitan.” It’s one cool and convenient way to be all set for school.
all of the comments above this are love. Love for the family, self, style, durability and memories to last forever that jansport could impart to us
thanks
Me and My Backpack, a 7-year old boy’s story as told to his mom…
Everyday I bring a backpack to school. I don’t really need to because I have a big stroller bag, but I still do.
I wait for my mom to pick me up after school. She says she cannot park if she goes there early so she picks me up at least thirty minutes after the bell rings… if it rains it usually takes her a lot longer. This is the time I open my backpack and get my snacks and drinks. I also stash books I borrow from the library in my backpack so I have something to read. I also put my wallet in my backpack so I can buy food or drink from the canteen in case my baon runs out. My backpack is my friend, it holds everything I need until my mom comes to get me. It keeps me company while I wait, and I can’t imagine being without it.
I love my backpack, even now that it’s a little worn I wouldn’t exchange it for any other bag in the world.
Kenshin Lei, 7 years old — as told to Rowena Wendy Lei
When I was still in highschool I wanted to have a jansport bag like my classmates, cause my bags were either hand-me-downs or those that easily tear and their zippers just give in.
In my senior year, we (the class) were required to make a journal of our day to day life happenings and I’ve written a couple of entries of me wanting to have a Jansport Bag, how much I wanted it, and how nice my classmates’ bags were. I didn’t know one of my classmates read my journal, which I thank her for doing so now.
In that specific entry she read was about my want for a Jansport bag. Graduation came and to my surprise, she gave her own Jansport bag to me as a remembrance and she told me about her knowing all the while how I wanted one thru my journal.
It’s been almost 9 years since graduation and I still have it here with me, my first ever Jansport Bag.
Bags are already useful to begin with, and that’s why they were invented. In the end, it’s not really about the usefulness that captivates you into using them–it’s the convenience of having something to put your things into when you don’t want to carry them around with your arms.
I’ve been everywhere with my bag — hotels, school, roads that I frequent, and those that I rarely pass by. Someone else may have the same bag as I do, but mine’s individuality shines through with the way I design it.
I love Hello Kitty. And my bag is full of Hello Kitty pins. And traveling has always been such an indulgence–my key chains would attest to that.
I’ve been in love with Jansport backpacks throughout college. Literally. It was a bag brand I loved to bits and what better way than to make it your own by adorning it with trinkets, keychains and even occasionally, turning it into a walking artwork, like this perhaps:

i’ve been in love with jansport backpacks for a very long time. this is a brand that every body craves for. i dont go any where without a bag and now i am begining to collect jansport backpacks in my most adorable collection. this type of brand is an expensive brand but that does not matter at all, evry body still wants it. i would pay any amount of money for a jansport once i like it. all jansport bags are unique.
Damn, just too late to enter this contest to win a Hedgren bag. I don’t really like the backpacks from Jansport or Bratpack. I prefer the backpacks from Hedgren!
Jansport is not only about quality but also of style. With the almost 10 years that I’ve been using Jansport bags, I witnessed its beautiful evolution. The colors and designs change according to the changes in the tastes of bag enthusiasts like me. Jasport offers a variety of options for different people with different characters. My sister Liza love Jansport bag with colorful circles theme, Jansport with varying shapes and colors for my brother Milo, sporty classic for Papa James and floral for Mama Jaz. As for me, i like the plain pink Jansport bag.
More power to Jansport bags. Continue creating creative colors and designs. I LOVE It!
Thanks for sharing. I am big fan of Bratpack and i will certainly enter the competition

My store takes us to the amazing country to Tajikistan, which is one of the most beautiful places with 4000+ meter mountains, in central asia. I was there on travels with my new Jansport back. I had EVERYTHING in it, meaning my 1,5000 canon camera, passport, and wallet. I left the bag in a Machutka (like a public transport van made for 9 people, usually having about 20+ passegers). I got off, and about 10 minutes after walking down the street of Hujant, I noticed that I was feeling a little lighter than usual. To cut a long story short, one of the locals with limited english helped me find the place where the Machutka drivers gather, and I got my bag back in about 2 hours, with EVERTYHING STILL IN IT! And, if you know that part of the word, it was a total miracle!
Hits in my GS/HS/College Years if you always wear this during schooldays you feel like a bag Jansport celebrity. Sometimes most of my Classmates got same Jansport bag and same color on shirts, socks, caps during our civilian day. Trip Trip and doing funny things and jokes. But most important is it can carry a lot of books and school stuff and durable. A remarkable memory and even in my professional days i still used it whever i travel, work in Asia and as i do Extreme Adventure Sports.
