Ogio Juggernaut Backpack

This backpack is stylish, lightweight, and holds a lot. My son is using it for college and it holds all the books, laptop, calculator, and food! He is very pleased with the backpack and would recommend it.

I needed a bag to replace my Ecko bag that started ripping inside and began losing zippers. I wanted a nice looking bag that had plenty of room like the Ecko backpack. I did a little research and found this OGIO bag. I never heard of the brand before and found they make a few different bags. I got the Juggernaut for $40 which I thought was a good price.

Here's what I like about the bag, I'll start with the organizer pocket. It's the biggest organizer in a bag I've owned. It has a clip for keys, a cell phone pocket, pencil/pen pocket, a netted pocket zipper and one big pocket.

The next compartment headed towards the shoulder straps is a big compartment without any pockets. It opens wide and is roomy.

The next compartment is a small, padded area for glasses or maybe a Microsoft Zune HD and headphones. :) It's a place to protect small items.

The next compartment is another big one. It has a laptop sleeve and it's roomy. This is the pocket that means the most to me. I wanted to be able to stack my shoes in the bottom of the bag and have room to add other stuff I'd need for the gym. It works just like my old Ecko Bag.

Other nice touches are how the front sternum straps are on rails which is the only way I can describe it. I've never seen this. It allows you to adjust their location higher or lower. I like all the loops placed around the bag. I use one of them for my locker lock just 'cuz. It has a bottle holder on both sides of the back. There is padding on the shoulder straps and back of the backpack which is nice. A cool touch is that the inside of the bag has circuitry printed on the material. Good touch there as I'm geeky! LOL! It's pleasant surprise that made me smile at least. :p Lastly I like the zippers. The zipper tracks on my Ecko bag kept coming loose allowing the zippers to fall off. I had to sew a few back in. It doesn't seem like that will be an issue on this bag as they seem to be sewn in really well.

So far great bag that seems like it's going to hold up. It's as roomy as my last bag but seems to have a lot more quality.

OGIO FTW!

Buy Ogio Juggernaut Backpack Now

The Juggernaut is the only Ogio backpack we've found that can truly accommodate two hard loose leaf binders (3" and 2"), assorted hard cover books, planner, electronic gadgets, arts and crafts supplies, and still leave room to spare. We like the Ogio brand because the fabrics they use are tough and comfortable, but our school requires the kids to use looseleaf binders, and they take up a lot of room. If the zipper fits around the binder too closely it will break and the backpack will become useless. The Juggernaut solved that problem for us. It should also fit a small laptop in the laptop padded pocket.

The netted "water bottle pockets" that Ogio typically adds on most of its backpacks (used for pens in my household) are made of stronger netting than a traditional backpack uses...so they don't break when they are filled with pens, cell phones, and various pointy objects.

The price, at around $40 on Amazon, is a bargain for a backpack this well-engineered. I hope Ogio continues to make this fantastic model. BTW, the brown one is in stock as of this writing, even though it is noted "not in stock" on this review page.

I bought this to replace my 15 year old's Jansport big student (which is stilling good shape). The reason we picked the Juggernaut was because of its roominess. My son does not like going to his locker in between classes, so he carries EVERYTHING in his backpack...which weighs around 50 lbs. The Jansport pack is still in good shape after 3 yrs use, but the zippers are strained and he wanted a little more room.

When I pulled the Ogio bag out, I was dismayed by its thinness. The bottom seems to have no reinforcements at all--in fact, it feels like a wind breaker...

Now, this could be some amazing, space-age material that will hold up to the abuse of a teen-on-the-go, so I guess we will have to wait and see what happens when clases resume in the fall...I will try to post a follow up then...
