Where do you get your DCs backpacks from?

Hi,

I am currently looking to buy another one for my 7yo.
It needs to have nice, thick and comfy straps and most importantly - the strap adjuster needs to stay put when I adjust it!

Every backpack we've tried so far the adjusters are there but slide back to their original spot by the end of the day and he's forever walking around with one strap hanging halfway down his arm rather than on his shoulder.

Any brands or suggestions are very welcome!

Hype, from Vinted. Much cheaper than brand new. Stick in on a gentle cycle in the washing machine. Brilliant!

My 7 and 9 year olds have hype ones. Had them for a few months now I’m really pleased with them.

Are hype waterproof / water resistant?

Fjallraven, expensive but worth every penny. They might be too big for a 7 year old though.

Another vote for Hype, you can fit loads in. the strap are wide and stay put. My sons is 100% waterproof too, he walks to and from school and is books have always stayed dry when it has rained on him.
