My daughter's school needs transparent backpacks and I usually always buy the Smarty brand because I know they will last all year! However, this year I hesitated and they were all sold out, so I bought these! I hesitated because I had never heard of this brand, but my daughter liked the color. Finally a great bag! The color corresponds to the picture, very high quality sewn, the seams are tight. After all that crap she was supposed to be in there she seemed very heavy so we weighed her and she weighed 22.2 pounds! (My poor daughters are back!) Even then, he's holding up well. I would recommend buying this bag.
