Back to School Essentials: The Herschel Classic Backpack

It would be unwise to head to school without a sturdy backpack. It carries your homework, your computer, your rubber bands for shooting, and your gym clothes. It’s the all-in-one to support system for anything and everything you need in your day. A great backpack is sturdy but light, colorful and stylish. If you’re headed back to school, it needs to be spacious too. We had a look around at this fall’s backpack designs and found what we think is the must-have pack this season: Herschel Supply Co. Heritage Backpack, White Noise/Black Synthetic Leather

Classic-Backpack

Herschel Classic backpacks are designed after the traditional backpacks seen in nearly every classroom across America. It’s simple, with a single front pocket, and comfortable to wear with adjustable shoulder straps. Whether you’re a cool-kid one-strapper or studious two strap kind of person, the airy mesh will keep your shoulders relaxed and free. The design is lined with a smooth, striped fabric protecting the bag from spills and making it easy to slip things in and out. The zippers are fashioned with classic Prusik cord pulls for easy gripping. The Herschel Classic backpack shares lots of features with other classic styles. It may not seem unique, but perhaps the point of this top pick is not what sets it apart but how proven its design is. It has ample room and support for whatever you need to store.

The unisex look comes with options in solid shades of blue or tan. The Herschel Classic Backpack also comes in interesting prints like White Noise, which features static lines in various shades of blue. The print is what won us over with this specific bag. While solid colors are practical, the White Noise style looks cool but isn’t over the top. It’s subtle enough to endure shifts in seasonal fashion trends and sturdy enough to last for a few years. If you’re in the market for a backpack, this classic will get you through until senior year for only $44.
