Choosing a school backpack is one of the most important decisions before the start of the new school year. The right backpack is not just an accessory - it affects the child's health, comfort, and self-esteem. The 2025/2026 season focuses on ergonomics, strength and functionality – everything they need modern students.
What should a good school backpack include?
- Ergonomic design: padded and adjustable shoulder straps, anatomical breathable back, optional chest strap.
- Strength and durability: quality fabrics, reinforced bottom, reliable zippers and strong seams.
- Functionality and organization: compartments for textbooks, notebooks, lunch box, bottle, equipment.
- Safety: reflective elements and secure closures, hidden pockets for valuables.
- Modern design: a style that the child likes and is happy to wear every day.
Most common mistakes when choosing a school backpack
Mistake #1: Too big a backpack
"Having space" often leads to excess weight and poor posture. Choose a capacity based on age and needs.
Mistake #2: Compromising on ergonomics
The lack of padded shoulder straps and ergo back causes fatigue and back pain with daily use.
Mistake #3: Cheap materials
Weak fabrics and zippers break quickly – investing in a better quality backpack pays off in the long run.
Mistake #4: Heavy empty backpack
Choose models with a low dead weight - this way the actual weight for the child is less.
