Which bags have you bought your new secondary school child?

[Bluzoo]

The school have said plain dark back pack. Can’t find anything that is plain and dark and practical that doesn’t cost £££. What’s in fashion?

Is it small or private school? I never heard of a school trying to control their backpack style/colour before.

Look in sports direct. They have black ones.

Not sure if Hype are still in fashion?

Mine currently has an Adidas one from Sports Direct.

Previous one was from Argos.

You'll struggle to get one for less than £20.

DD4 and DD3 are grown ups now (20) but both are still a fan of their superdry rucksacks- about £40, but last well, cool enough to bring on family holidays and sleepovers, etc, and a big range of colours (I’ve got twins, so this is the best bit!) they’ve had the most use out of them and are great value.

Originally got an adidas rucksack but books got wet, spent a bit more and got a North Face one which keeps everything dry and is now 4 years old and he's still using it.

Amazon Basics. Various styles.

My eldest got a donut.. it's lovely loads of space & really well made. (Also lots of colours & you can get them really resonable price on ebay)
My dd2 got an Adidas & my ds1 got a converse all 3 are good bags lots of room & will keep stuff dry

I got a slazenger one from sports direct for £15. Came with a little lunch box too.

Not sure where it fits on the coolness scale, he'd be happy with a bag for life.
