Best place for school bags?

    I'm in sixth year and I've bought two school bags in the past two years that haven't lasted out the year.

    The "heavy-duty" Jansport bags used to be all over the place, but I've tried the usual places and they don't seem to be there.

    Where is there a wide selection of Jansport bags stocked? The Bag Shop shops don't stock them.

    Alternatively, are there any places that you would recommend that stock other bags that can keep up with a tonne of books and a bit of rough use without looking like hiking equipment?

    Thanks.

    Last time I was in Mahers on Oliver Plunkett St they had a good selection of the Jansport Bags. I have a heavy duty one but it was ordered online and cost nearly a hundred quid! got it here

    They have a full range of them in Lauras in Douglas because its a school supply shop, uniforms etc.
    They are on the 'back Douglas road' behind Tesco.
    You should look at the Litre Capacity on them to decide.

    Also last weekend I saw some on sale in the 'Dunnes Stores' shopping centre at the back near O'Briens restaurant.

    Thanks guys for all the suggestions.

    I knew of all these places, and have even seen Jansport bags in them before... but then when I actually had to go out and buy one, my mind went blank.

    Thanks again!
