Please help me find a 'nice' rucksack

It has to fit A4 wallets in etc and fairly sturdy.

It also has to look nice! I quite like dark brown leather as my 'go to' look but also happy with something similar to those Kankun backpacks (not happy to pay that price for the quality though)

Any ideas?

No Cath Kidston please Grin

River island and Debenhams had some nice ones in when I was buying mine last month. I got a Michael Kors one instead at a bargain price to use as my "days out with the kids" bag, it's plenty big enough and also good quality.

cheaper

numberonecook · 06/09/2019 13:53

I am looking for the same OP but they are either too expensive, too cheap looking or won’t fit my Mac book in. I looked in accessorise today but they looked like they would split in no time :(. Marks and Spencer’s had some lovely ones that may fit slim a4 size files in. Unfortunately not much else though :(

I have a small Mia tui bag I love. They also do a large one but I've not been able to justify buying it yet!

This?

beela · 06/09/2019 14:49

I was going to say recommend the John Lewis one. I've got it in grey, it fits my laptop in no problems, plus paperwork.

Roka London

SunnivaGunne · 06/09/2019 14:49

Roka have lovely ones. I bought a Bantry one in teal which is fab quality but maybe too small for your needs though I think other styles are bigger.

SunnivaGunne · 06/09/2019 14:50

Oh snap myreadingchallenge!

I use this for work. I paid £60 at Amazon.

I have the ‘coast’ back pack from Joules. Highly recommend. It fits a lot and looks good too :)

PS just saw there is 25% off at the moment too :)

bestofme21 · 06/09/2019 20:17

I bought this from urban outfitters. I love it can be worn as a rucksack too.

Please help me find a 'nice' rucksack
MrsMozartMkII · 06/09/2019 20:19

Some lovely rucksacks for sure, but one wonders how comfortable they'll be when full of papers and possibly a laptop and / or tablet.

FedUpWhatsApp · 06/09/2019 20:22

I never get the Mia Tui love. They are not attractive bags. I'm also on a quest so thanks for asking OP!

FedUpWhatsApp · 06/09/2019 20:23

@Samosaurus Does the Joules one for A4 folders in it?

Samosaurus · 06/09/2019 20:26

@FedUpWhatsApp yes with lots room to spare. I take my laptop and files for work in it. I am tempted to buy another one in case they ever stop making them!
