    It looks gorgeous. I would love to have one, and I'm not even close to primary school age :D

    I loved the making-of video: https://youtu.be/lSochjb6ovI

    this was written with at least the help of ai- it’s still a good article and idk if i’m the only one who can tell or we’re beyond the point of needing or wanting or caring to point it out. idk

      It drags on a bit and is rather verbose, which is what made me notice it was AI-assisted.

    For me the iconic school bag will always be the JanSport.

    Interesting read. The title made me think of Catholic School Book Bags that everyone in my city who went to Catholic Schools used. Public school kids (me) just carried the books to school, rain, snow or shine. No school busses back then.

    I could not find a picture, but there were like small army duffel bags, dark green with a yellow fabric strap. You held the strap and slung the bag over your shoulder.

    Every generation accidently recreates the same object with newer materials and better marketing. This is basically the modern equivalent of a satchel, except now it comes with aerospace fabric, limited drops, and a Discord server.

      LLM comment? The link is about randoseru, which are not satchels and predate the existence of both discord and powered flight.
