I need a backpack for school. Something that can hold good amounts of books and is durable.

large ass LL bean backpack. I still have mine from 5th grade and it tanks like a beast. No other backpack has that much space in it.

Just get a north face or jansport backpack. Does it really matter that much? I got a high sierra backpack from tj max for like $10 and it gets the job done.

the annoyance of having it dangling pays off when you are using it while biking, skiing, etc

I have an older model of the Heli Pro, and the bottom strap/buckle is only held to the backpack by two lines of stitching. So I took an exacto and cut the stitching so I can take out that bottom strap/buckle for school and just insert it back in for skiing.

Did you notice that mine was a High Cascade Snowboard Camp backpack. Lol.


Of course I was kidding, just in case anyone's meter is broken.
