Limited Lifetime Warranty

Trust is built over time, so for more than 50 years JanSport has engineered packs that are built to last. We stand by the quality and durability of every pack we make, so when your pack does eventually wear out as all things do - you'll know without a doubt that you've gotten the most life you can out of your JanSport and experience.


The products eligible for the limited lifetime warranty are covered to the original owner, for the lifetime of the product. Unfortunately, this does not mean your lifetime. Inevitably, well used (and well loved!) products will eventually wear out – so it may simply be time to replace it.
