Complete guide: high school school bag 2025
Back to school is often synonymous with renewal, and choosing the right handbag is essential for organizing your daily life. Whether for high school , university or simply to have a practical and functional school bag , several criteria must be taken into account. Here are the points to consider before investing in a handbag for school .
1. Quality: a sustainable investment
A good handbag should be made with quality materials. Synthetic leather, genuine leather, or durable fabrics are preferred. Stitched handles ensure greater durability, making them ideal for everyday use.
2. Appearance: combining aesthetics and functionality
A high school backpack should, above all, reflect your style. Opt for understated, versatile colors like black, beige, or navy for an elegant touch, or dare to go for pastel shades and prints for a more on-trend look.
3. Practical size: adapt the volume to your needs
The size of the bag is essential. For students and high school girls , a large A4-sized handbag capable of holding notebooks and school documents is essential. Our models in A4 leather bags from Flora and Co and Gallantry are perfect for combining practicality and style, offering ample space for your essentials while maintaining a stylish look. Whether for classes or a day at work, these bags are designed to meet your daily needs.
What items should fit in the bag?
-
A laptop
-
A binder
-
A kit
-
Notebooks and school books ( A4 format , like an Atoma notebook )
By opting for an A4 leather bag , you benefit from the resistance of leather while enjoying a bag that remains sufficiently spacious without being too bulky.
4. Design: practicality and ergonomics
A good school bag should be sturdy, lightweight, practical, and stylish. Choose a model with multiple interior and exterior compartments for better organization. Our A4 leather bags are built to last, with premium materials and meticulous workmanship that ensures extended use without compromising on appearance. Additionally, some bags feature protective studs on the bottom , providing added durability by reducing wear and tear when you put your bag down.
5. School use: an essential criterion
If you're carrying a laptop, make sure your A4 leather bag has a padded compartment to protect your equipment. Additionally, an adjustable, padded shoulder strap is ideal for optimal comfort, especially if you're carrying a heavier bag like an A4 leather bag with books and a laptop.
6. Value for money: choose your investment wisely
A good high school backpack doesn't have to be expensive. It's important to compare materials, design, and customer reviews before purchasing. A higher price can sometimes be a sign of better durability, as is often the case with some major luxury brands and more established brands.

7. Closure: a point to watch out for
The closure of a bag is a crucial element. Some customers point out that a bag with a top closure ensures nothing is lost , while others have encountered problems with the closure breaking or jamming.
How to repair a broken zipper?
-
Use candle wax or dry soap to soften the closure.
-
If the zipper jams, check for trapped threads or debris.
-
If the zipper is completely broken, it is sometimes possible to have it replaced by a shoemaker.
How to avoid this problem?
-
Do not force the closure when it is resistant.
When closing your bag, avoid forcing the zipper, especially if it seems resistant. This can cause damage, particularly to the zipper, handle, or material. Use a soft closure to ensure durability. -
Check the quality of the closure when purchasing.
Before purchasing your bag, it's essential to check the quality of the zipper. Test the mechanism several times to ensure it slides smoothly and there's no excessive resistance. A good zipper should be smooth and snag-free, ensuring easy opening and closing. -
Maintain the zipper regularly by moisturizing it.
To prolong the life of your zipper, it is recommended to maintain it regularly by moisturizing it with a suitable product, such as wax or dry soap. This helps maintain the zipper's flexibility and prevent it from jamming or breaking prematurely. -
Do not overload your bag with heavy or large items.
Avoid putting heavy or bulky items in your bag, such as oversized computers, rigid binders, or office files. These items can put excessive pressure on the zipper, which could damage it. For example, don't put a computer that's too large or larger than the bag's dimensions, as this could damage the handle and affect the closure. -
How do you know if your computer or documents can fit in the bag?
When choosing a bag to carry a laptop or large documents, don't rely solely on the bag's exterior height. A better indicator is the distance between the bottom of the bag and the zipper. Many bags have zippers that sit a few inches below the top edge of the bag. Therefore, before purchasing a bag, check the distance between the bottom of the bag and the zipper to ensure your computer or documents can fit comfortably without compromising the quality of the zipper.
8. Shoulder strap: an element of comfort
If you need to carry your bag for long periods of time, a large handbag with an adjustable, padded shoulder strap is essential. It helps distribute the weight of the bag more evenly and prevents shoulder pain.
Why choose a bag with an adjustable shoulder strap?
-
Allows you to adapt the bag to your body shape.
-
Ideal for alternating between hand and shoulder carrying.
-
More comfortable for carrying a heavy bag.
