NSAIFR: Rec your large backpack under 75 bucks

I need a backpack bad. We are about to travel and mine is fraying at the straps - just won't make it another trip. I'd like it to be "pretty" but mostly I don't want it to be cheapy material. I went to Target to see the 5 backpacks they offered in my store and most of the Jansport were big enough but the material felt like a windbreaker. I just can't see that lasting very long with a kid, being shoved in and out of a car, airplane, under the seat, etc. And those were 30 bucks for those!

I'd love to hear your recs with links if you have them :)

I leave in a week so I need it fast!

Thanks ladies!

    splurge on something from REI, or check their outlet for closeouts.

    We've taken ours around the world and back again, and not even a stitch is loose. The brand escapes me at the moment, but they're all black, and their logo has a worldglobe on it, I believe? not cheap, but worth every penny.

    Love my North Face backpack. I have had it since 1999 and it still works great and is in great condition.

    DH loves his Swiss Army MAXXUM backpack. He used it all 4 years of medical school with HEAVY books and his computer.

    Find a super nice one that you like....

     

    THEN go get it off ebay for half price.

     

    Voila.... good quality.... great price.

     

     

    Our IF journey: 1 m/c, 1 IVF with only 3 eggs retrieved yielding Dylan and a lost twin, 1 shocker unmedicated BFP resulting in Jace, 3 more unmedicated pregnancies ending in more losses.
    Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.
