Well, the question is simple. Could some people gimme some links to good paintball company made backpacks, which can be used for school and arent all honkin huge? I hate this cheap generic bag, and could use an extra gearbag for tourneys...my dye one doesnt hold all my tools and whatnot. Thanks for anyhelp.

Well all paintball gear backpacks are gonna be bulky.

So just get a school backpack and cover it in paintball stuff.

Nike backpacks are pimp, not really big. Theyre kinda small though.

JT makes a pretty nice backpack..it looks almost like their SUV Gear Bag but it's smaller and not really for all your paintball gear...it just looks like the bigger one..

I it took me a year but I concluded my search and I found a draxxus/xball back pack at the IAO. You probably could call National up and ask. They cost like $20. I dont think it would hold much in the way of books. Depends on how much HW you can get done in the morning before school.

I wanted to get an Extreme Rage Siq Saq and use it as a portable locker, but I figured it would be better to not have back problems than to be ablt to claim the "biggest backpack in school". :p

bah! just get an ALICE pack. use the medium one because it fits all of your books ( i use one) no problem. Not to mention you can fit 3 two litre bottles in the pockets. those suckers are strong two. I had my friends little brother in my backpack during a game and used him as a kindof backwatcher.

it was pretty cool.

I agree, get an ALICE pack, but I recommend the large "Ranger Ruck". It comes with an extra 3 magazine pouches on the outside. Perfect for the modern school zone :)

Those are not in stock at AV. I would not recommend ordering anything that is not in stock!

Well, the more I look at the JT, the more I dont want it, but I think I do. I look at it and seea tiny opening at the top, so small that I would have to cram the books in there, and a really ackward looking massive zipper thing on the bottom. I think im gonna get the small raven one, but I really want the JT. Dyes looks real nice, but not 100 dollars nice for a school backpack, and I already have a dye gearbag, and everything else they make. Damn near literally.

Ronin Gear or I&I sports has a nice pack at a decent price.
