Answer 2

Check out Swiss Gear. Especially the Synergy backpack:

They mainly make laptop backpacks, but they are extremely sturdy and will hold up for a long time. I bought one at the beginning of the last school year and used it for the whole year. It still seems like it's new.

Answer 3

Got my Timberland in the mid 90's. Still use it today; very comfortable shoulder straps, tough material (still looks new), never had a problem with the zipper. It also has great water-proofing.

Answer 4

I actually had a pretty good one from Lacoste (that i got on sale for a lot less than in the actual store) and it lasted me... like 3 years! It was pretty tough...

hope this helps :]
