So I am getting prepped for going back to school and I would like to know what yall's favorite backpack is...

For me I need it to be able to carry my food for the day (container of about 1-1.5 lbs meat, container of veggies, container of fruits, and ice pack to keep them all cold) as well as carry my books and school stuff....

I prefer to just have one big nice backpack to do it all rather than have a backpack for the school stuff and my huge lunch box that I lug around with me all the time.

So please chime in and let me know what yall use/prefer.

I don't mind looking like I am about to be deployed with a huge survival pack and what not lol but would rather not if I can help it....

These pisses me off. Majority of the time the user of these that I have came across end up walking much slower. Some times I get tripped up in them, makes me want to stomp their wheels off and let them drag that thing all day long.

If you don't mind the military look, IMHO the best packs in the world are London Bridge Trading, I have taken them all around the world and have never had so much as a fastener failure. I used an old school jumpable medical ruck as a day/short hiking pack and found it to be excellent to civilian applications.

I've been out of the military for several years now, but I guess the current brand of packs that's in vogue is Mystery Ranch, from what I hear from some of my old comrades...

EDITED TO ADD...if you are in the military or work in a SWAT-type capacity in law enforcement, the company has a discount program. If they don't acknowledge your inquiries, PM me, I have a very good relationship with the company (not a financial relationship, I have just ordered a lot of my tactical gear from them over the years).

This is what I am packing around Iraq. Yeah, putting a gun in there is kickass, but it also holds a laptop perfectly. Attach a few Molly pouches inside/outside and you can carry anything. I think I have about 7k CI of space on mine. I look like a mountain carrying it but damn is it a good pack. I bought dry earth with the purpose of using it back home, yank all the pouches off and it just looks like a brown pack. The rifle holster folds into the pack to draw less attention lol. I can post pics if youd like!

Mystery Ranch are a little bit better packs, but a tad spendier. Kifaru is the king, there are no better packs in existence. Eberlestocke has sexy gun holsters, which are not a gimmick at all.

I have one of those skater back packs with half of it a cooler and the top part is for books and all. Back in middle school we used to get beer, hide them in there and skate and drink around town.
