Durable School Bags For Kids

The stylish and functional rucksack options at Pottery Barn Kids come in small sizes for children who are 109 cm tall or large sizes for children who are 122 cm tall and up. A select few designs also come in mini or rolling sizes. They're sewn of rugged materials, like water-resistant 600-denier polyester, to stand up to daily use.

• These bags offer adjustable straps that are padded and contoured to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.
• The knapsack backs are also cushioned for extra comfort.
• Some feature reflective piping, ensuring better visibility in low-light situations.
• Their exterior mesh side pockets are perfectly sized to hold a reusable water bottle, available separately.
• Some backpacks have a pocket cut-out to accommodate headphone cords, making it easy for kids to listen to music while travelling to and from school.
• Many offer exterior straps that are great for carrying a lunch box, allowing them to keep the interior compartments free for books, notebooks and school supplies.

Knapsack Style Options For Boys and Girls of all Ages

In addition to their functional features, these backpacks also offer style elements that kids won't be able to resist. For little boys and girls who dream of being royalty, look for bags that showcase Disney Princesses, and for ones who want to save the world, browse for bags printed with Marvel™ superheroes. Other popular franchises that are represented include Star Wars™, PAW Patrol™ and Hot Wheels™.

If your child wants something simpler, consider school bags that feature floral designs, camo prints or heart patterns. If they would prefer to stand out at school, look for ones that offer exciting decorative details, like glow-in-the-dark elements or plenty of glitter. Glow-in-the-dark bag options include solar systems and dinosaurs, and glittery bag options include clouds and butterflies.
