JanSport History -

JanSport has been around for 40 years, providing quality backpacks that can take you to the school yard or the backcountry, through the urban jungle or leaf-covered trails.

JanSport has recently revamped their whole line of products to be even more competitive with the high-end outdoor technical gear. Not a single product was overlooked and all received vast improvements. Backpacker Magazine has caught on to JanSport`s innovative technologies and has greatly praised its new products.

If your looking for the same quality product as those over-priced high-end outdoor companies, and still want that trusted name behind it, JanSport is the one.

Whittaker Series -

The JanSport Whittaker Series is a direct result of collaboration with Peter Whittaker and thousands of hours of product testing by over 40 guides on Mt. Rainier and around the world. The 3 packs in the Whittaker Series are lightweight, durable, and designed with simplicity, fit, and function in mind, to best suit the needs of both professional guides and the clients as they venture into the mountains.

GridFit -

JanSport`s GridFit Harness Plate is the key to the easy-to-fit backpack system. Allowing for simple adjustment of both torso length and shoulder width guarantees maximum comfort regardless of height or load requirements.

S-Curve Shoulder Straps -

S-Curve straps are fundamental to many of JanSport`s suspension systems. This ergonomic design pattern follows the natural contours of the body so that when the pack is loaded, it relieves stress from the shoulders and disperses weight across the back.
