Well, IMO they have never been designed well. I will probably keep using a messenger bag for days I don't bike either way, but I actually like this design better than previous.

[ellorie]

Well, at least they're not boring - you guys sure will stand out in a crowd though!

I'll be interested to see how many 1st years will actually wear that. The 2015's and us 2016's were lucky to get blue and red, respectively.

 

Honestly, they should have made this year's backpack a combination of black and white, or a dark green.

 

I don't see many people wearing their pumpkin more than a month, tops LOL

Why not? The design is nicer IMO than the last couple years. Nothing wrong with Orange.

 

I'd rather a nice dark brown leather messenger beg, but beggars can be choosers I suppose :-P

I'm not sure why so many people seem to dislike it so much - it's a fairly subdued orange colour, not something overly bright or ostentatious. I like it.

Someone said it actually looks very bright and not subdued. I will probably only wear it for a month and then throw it in the closet. I would have loved any other colour than this. I don't like to stand out in the crowd and this makes you look like a pylon lol.

I guess, but people are saying they'd be okay with red, which is at least as bright as orange. It doesn't look overly crazy to me - people are talking about as if it's bright pink with pictures of ponies all over it or something .

Everyone has different tastes. Wear it if you like it, and don't wear it if you don't.

 

All I was saying is that I don't see as many people wearing this backpack as other students have in the past.

 

But who cares, it's just a backpack.

It's the same design as last year's bag.

I think it looks much brighter in person, the new med students at UofC are standing out like sore thumbs right now haha. That's just my opinion of what I've seen so far today at the Foothills, but I'm sure orange will suit a lot of people just fine!

I love the colour I think it looks fantastic.

So I was on campus yesterday and saw a bunch of the 2T0s with their shiny new turquoise backpacks.  They looked so cute and excited...

 

I've updated the list of backpack colours on page 1 of this thread.  Realized I don't know what the colour was in 2015 -- can somebody advise?

Anyone have any idea when we can expect to hear about this year's backpack colour?

[ellorie]

Probably whenever U of C has their orientation and gets theirs.

probably get a poll on it some point soon if history holds

[CXR]

Hopefully you guys get pink....this has been a top contender for years now and still hasn't happened...

Please nooo!

[elucidator2341]

Please nooo!

Don't worry, I think it's extremely unlikely they'd do a colour like pink  

 

My money is on some shade of red/burgundy!

hopefully not quite a bright as my year's red. I can still stop traffic with mine. 

 

(they do hold up those bags)

If the highlighter colour trend continues, I am predicting a bright neon yellow ... bleh ...
