Well my grandma got this Independent Backpack for me for X-mas, it's made well and won't tear up easly, it's thin unlike so you can still skate with it on which is very important for me. Also i like the way it feels thats pretty bitchen too! Grab one if you get a chance. Stylish, nice, comfortable, and really good for skating. You can stretch your feet out really well, good for skating, get these there really good.
