Find me a backpack that s stylish and cool

[baublesnbubbles]

Hello everyone
I need some MN help please, I m Looking for a backpack to carry gym gear, work papers/ reading book/ laptop, lunch / water bottle, purse keys etc - so needs to be substantial.
Does a stylish cool yet multi pocket / sectioned version exist ?
Currently using henschel black one but it s a bit small for everything I end up carrying a handbag backpack for gym gear and desperate pillage for work stuff ..... combined with coat hat scarf i look bonkers today! Have had enough of the multi bag schlep. Help please ?!

Tiba + Marl

I'm looking for one too! Watching with interest

Fact + Fiction Charli backpack - very happy with mine.

I have Fjallraven Kanken in grey, and I really like it. Totally waterproof and you can get tons in. I've eve used it as a weekend bag.

Have you tried gymtote?

I have a Fjallraven Kanken in teal and it’s got a section for a laptop at the back and I always have a water bottle in it.

I got a tumi Calais , expensive but gorgeous

Thanks all.
Not sure about the fjilarven ones,
Tiba and marl - thought they were more changing bags really

Just googled tumi Calais - fabulous ! But so out of my price range !

Lululemon has lovely laptop/gym gear backpacks.

For myself I hot a knomo and I love it.

I thought the same about tiba and marl but liked my friend's one - her youngest is 4 so not used as a change bag anymore, just all her work and gym stuff. Was too big for me as I don't go to the gym. Certainly doesn't look like a change bag anyway!

Avoid kanken - I have one but only one proper main compartment and one small zip one, so it's hard to find stuff. Plus I'm 37 and feel like I'm a bit old for it really, all the students round here have them.

I have this it's the love of my life!

Whistles have some plain black leather ones? think style is the Verity

Liking the lululemon everywhere backpack And the other city run one (love the pocket marked sweaty unmentionables 😂)
Anyone able to comment on the longevity and wear and tear ability of them ?

Thanks for the suggestions !
Tiba and Marl look lovely but I m just out of toddlerdom and just can't even go there getting a changing bag. Love them otherwise.

I m more of a plain neutral type of bag not big on pattern or too much colour (am fickle so would change mind )

Oh whistles - will check them out thanks

It doesn't exist unless you're prepared to spend £100 or more. I've spent the past few days trying to find one.

I don't mind spending a bit 100-150 maybe - have some birthday gift £££ to use, but if it s going to be spendy like that I want to know it ll hold, the straps won't give way in a week and that the fabric is either washable or wipeable and won't stink to high heaven after a few trips to the gym.
I want it to be fashionable but not disposable fashion- though if mango or Zara do a good option I m totally on it too.

Still open to suggestions ....

Would this be too small? Always loved the look of these:

This is really good if you want something inexpensive, or just to tide you over till you find the perfect one:

If you’re on a budget (I know the OP isn’t but other people might be) then I do love the H&M men’s back packs which are really good quality.
grey marle. I’m personally craving the reflective one - what do you think?
