JanSport Odyssey Backpack

Take it into the backcountry or haul all the school supplies you'll ever need, either way the JanSport Odyssey Backpack offers spacious organized storage and a comfortable suspension system for adventures of the wilderness or academic kind. The Odyssey is one of those backpacks that you can stuff with 25 pounds of gear or books without worrying about suffering from an achy back. AirLift™ shoulder straps made of a unique shock absorbing material distribute the weight evenly, and a tuck-away padded hip belt works in tandem with an internal frame sheet to share the load with the shoulders when necessary. For hikes or hot afternoons on campus, the JanSport Odyssey Backpack includes a reservoir-ready hydration sleeve so you can easily arrange for hands-free drinks on the go. Side compression straps keep the load from shifting when scrambling over rocks or quickly descending an uneven path, and reflective details add an element of safety if your usual route home involves a bike ride or roadside walk.

Great for school OR hiking
This pack is large enough to hold everything you need but isn't too bulky. It has alot of compartments. And (unlike previous backpacks I've had) the water bottles are held securely and won't fall out when you lean over.

Bought this backpack 4 years ago.
I have used this backpack for school for four years now and it is still holding strong on me. Even when I have filled the bag so much that i think it is going to rip. The bag is very durable and comfortable. Best bag I ever had a must buy!

I love my Jansport Odyssey!
The Jansport Odyssey was exactly the pack I was looking for. I researched many packs and many vendors and I made a good buying decision. This was my 1st purchase with Altrec and I will be a repeat customer. The pack is very comfortable with good pads on the shoulder and hip straps. It holds a lot with big compartments and a good organizer. Also, the water bottle holders on the side will hold my large size Kleen Kanteens. Great pack, great service. I'm a very satisfied customer.

Superior quality and don't forget the lifetime warranty!
The Jansport Odyssey is just perfect. This pack can be used in an urban setting as well as the hiking trail. It is constructed of quite durable materials and it's aesthetic appeal is just grandiose. The dark black color is just so cool.

awesome bag
If they have the 6th star, I would give it to this bag. Airlift, back panel, enough room, and well-organized design are perfect for my fieldwork. highly recommend it to field geologists and those friends who have a whole day long field work.

JanSport: Odyssey Backpack (BLACK)
This backpack was something I've been looking for. This is the '07 version and there's an '08 version, which just looks a little bit different, but I still prefer this. What people said about shipping is true. Maybe because their local office is several cities away from my house, but my free shipping was as fast as normal shipping. I ordered on Friday and it came on Monday.

great buying experience!
The bag is light, cute, and has plenty of pockets. But the best pat was the shopping experience with Altrec. i was surprised how fast they shipped. I got it in half the time of the promised delivery time. Great to buy at Altrec! Thanks!
