Has anyone tried this backpack? It's a BSA exclusive, so I'm having trouble finding reviews for it. My Wolf wants to get it with his Scout Bucks from the Popcorn Sale, but I don't know much about it.
Is it good? Does it hold up? I bought him the Cub Scout Daypack, and it was garbage. The strap tore off of the first one (under normal use), and the pocket lining ripped out of the second (again under normal use). Finally gave up. Also didn't hold it's shape in the back, just sort of fell over. I just don't want to face the same disappointment with this one. Any advice you can leave in the Comments section below the post is appreciated!

When my sons (3) transitioned out of Cubs, I bought them and myself Jansport Ranier backpacks. As CC of the troop, I had the Ranier on the prize list for Pancake sales. Since then the Ranier has been discontinued, but I would still recommend a Jansport for a low end pack purchase. However for a Cub, I would simply recommend a daypack with or w/o a hipbelt. We took the Raniers to Philmont 4x for treks. Some of the stuff sold by BSA is junk as you unfortunately found out - low cost, high markup. Some is not (uniforms)! Buyer Beware
