Top 5 Bags For University

Make sure your gear is always protected as you move around campus between classrooms and lecture halls. There are so many options out there that it’s sometimes difficult to choose which bag will be right for you. That’s why we’ve done all the hard work and compiled a list of our top 5 bags for university that look great whilst being highly functional. We know, we know, you’re welcome. Now do us proud and go pass those exams!

Herschel Pop Quiz Backpack

Perfectly sized for uni, the Pop Quiz has the same great shape and feel of the classic Herschel daypacks, with the addition of a padded 15.4″ laptop compartment, any easy access fleece lined sunglass pocket (we love this!) and an additional zipped organiser pocket to keep all your phone, diary, pens and other essential bits and pieces in place. Super comfy to wear and available in a variety of core and seasonal colours, the Pop Quiz is one of our favourite bags for university.

Incase Reform Backpack

Give your uni gear some heavy duty protection with this bag. Designed for modern creatives, it features a really sturdy laptop cage that absorbs impact and keeps your device safe. There are tonnes of internal compartments for a phone, wallet, pens, notebooks and all other everyday uni essentials. We love that this backpack is made from an eco-friendly material that’s good for the environment.

Sandqvist Roald Backpack

This vintage inspired rucksack is a great stylish option for days on campus. The poly-cotton canvas is thick and strong and will wear nicely over time. It comes with a padded laptop sleeve, back panel and shoulder straps which make it comfortable to wear. The external stash pockets provide easy access to frequently used items.

Jansport Right Pack

The Classic Jansport Right Pack has all you need for a day at uni. A premium suede leather base reinforces the bag and provides some padding for your gear on hard surfaces. The laptop compartment will fit up to a 15″ device and a front utility pocket keeps small items easily accessible. This bag is one of our favourite classic bags for university. We love the Right Pack’s simplicity and think that there’s something nice and nostalgic about its traditional style.

Crumpler The Proud Stash

Do as the name suggests and stash all of your uni essentials away into this simple backpack. No bells. No whistles. Just a lifetime-guaranteed bag that’s comfy to wear. The Proud Stash comes in some fun Crumpler colourways which will add some brightness to your uni days.

Entirely leather free, the vegan Bellroy Venture Sling is made from 100% recycled, water resistant woven fabric and features a generous amount of padding to protect cargo at all times. Reiterating Bellroy’s smart use of sturdy premium materials, the Venture Sling is completed by YKK water resistant zippers and strong, intuitive quick-release buckles that sit on either side of the bag to allow flexibility for the wide, adjustable strap letting you carry in the exact way that’s right for you.

The Bellroy Venture Sling is firm and structured on the outside, allowing the bag to keep shape whether you’re compressing it for a tighter profile, or expanding the gusset for more space. The specific placing of the buckles is new for Bellroy, and it clearly pays off, allowing for easy release around the sides of the bag for a better overall experience, and to help keep the natural tension of the bag for a tighter, slimmer silhouette.
