The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- The bag is quite light at under a pound, so it won't weigh you down even when empty.
- Storage is pretty basic with just one main compartment and a front pocket, so it's not ideal if you need lots of organization or separate sections.
- The recycled polyester material is durable, but this is a no-frills bag without extra features like laptop padding or tech pockets.
As of Aug 31, the JanSport Cross Town Backpack is overpriced at $39.47 — versus a $35.54 typical price and a $28.72 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
