How good are Land's End backpacks?

Are they as good as LL Bean's? I want a backpack for my kids that lasts longer than a year. One's a teenager and one's 11. Any recommendations?

Answer
Well, their school backpacks are about the same - I've had a Land's end backpack and an LL Bean backpack and both lasted me for years or years. But, you'll want to get their backpacks that are advertised for school, anything with a 'frame' is probably meant for wildnerness, carry-everything-on-your-back-for-a-week, backpacking.

However, for your teenager, I've recently been seeing a lot of reasonably priced (well, around $30-$40) 'Swiss Army' backpacks. I got one myself, and they're definitely designed to be better for your back, they're really durable, and they've got all the pockets and such you need. My brother and i have both had ours for years, and they've both held up to all our college-related abuse pretty well.

Suggestions for a backpack for a first grader, please.?

I heard that Lands End and LL Bean make great quality backpacks but they are expensive and my ex husband won't split the cost with me unless I buy cheaper. The kids keep their backpacks outside of the class and they take a beating. Last year she had a cheapie Target brand and I had to keep sewing it up and washing it.

Any brand suggestions that hold up nicely?

Thank you!

Answer
the best answer i have for your ex is that the better quality backpacks last longer, and look better as well. so he will only have to buy it once a year, and probably less than once a year.

best of luck

btw, those are the best brands, and if i'm not mistaken, they have a guarantee, so they would be replaced if it 'dies'. think about that.
