He still uses it, and it still bears the Smashing Pumpkins patch he sewed on it in high school (yes, he did the sewing himself).

We didn't have a backpack but I bought a plain used one this week. Frankly, though, I was planning on just sending it with my son plain. No? He seems to go for it.

I don't know how many crappy backpacks my kids went through when they were younger until we finally stopped buying the cheap plastic character of the year Wal Mart ones.
