With a backpack this expensive ($110 USD), I expect it to be fully bulletproof, be able to connect to my smart fridge, and include a full buffet lunch every school day.

Is this included?

Yeah, I have 2 kids in school (Canada), and I won't go above $40-$50 US for backpack, not worth it. I also saw someone mention the lack of lifetime warranty.

God I think even 50$ is steep.

It’s a damn bag and not for my wife

I know, that's basically buying an adult backpack that's a bit more functional than one marketed for kids at $50 (US). I have done it but I would have to think very hard about anything beyond that.

I bought a lightweight backpacking backpack with 25L capacity, a water bladder and drinking tube, and ergonomic back support for 120$ last winter. This dude is tripping.

$110 for something meant to last with lots of features is not excessive. A good bag for adults runs $200+. When is the last time you shopped outside of a WalMart?

Meant to last? Bro it's a young child's backpack, if they don't lose it they're going to outgrow it and need a larger one in a few years anyway

My kid is 12. He's on his third backpack because he wanted a pokémon one. It was 25 dollars.

Did your child outgrow our Tinypak?

Fear not! Allow me to introduce the Mediumpak!

It's like kids are hard on stuff and people have multiple children to pass things on to. Buying 3-4 $30-$40 backpacks in the span of a few years is way less economical. Backpacks also adjust. It's not like they outgrow them at the age range the bags are intended for. Your arguments are unfounded and just uniformed. I guess you just want to be mad for no reason.
