Apologies in advance for the incredibly boring thread.
My dts start secondary school in a couple of weeks and need a decent big sturdy bag each. They won’t have lockers so have to carry everything with them. They need to take a chrome book to school with them everyday too so it needs to have room for that and books.
Any suggestions ?

This is probably deeply untrendy but I bought my DS a 20l rucksack from Decathlon when he started high school. It has a padded section inside which would be ok for a chromebook and it was big enough for books, coat and PE kit (in the days when they had to take PE kit in separately) It's lasted well and would be good for at least another year although he is now asking for a more trendy, branded one. It also has its own rain cover in a pocket, which I thought was a really good idea but he completely refuses to use as it's "so embarrassing".
Most of his friends seem to have sports branded rucksacks which is what he now wants.
