Schoolbag Sets and Backpacks from LÄSSIG

The first day of elementary school, along with the first day of kindergarten, is a milestone you and your child will never forget. Besides choosing a schoolbag or a complete schoolbag set, there's more to prepare with your first grader: What should go in the schoolbag or backpack? What else does an elementary school student need besides the schoolbag: pencil case, gym bag, wallet, lunchbox? This moment isn't just exciting for you; your little elementary schoolers are just as excited about buying their schoolbag as they are about starting school. For you as parents, this naturally means: Which schoolbag is the right backpack for this new chapter in their lives? After all, the schoolbag should accompany your child for a long time, and therefore it has to meet numerous other requirements.

For example, it must be lightweight and spacious, as well as relieve strain on the child's back. And last but not least, and most importantly, it must, of course, appeal to your future schoolchild. Therefore, your child should be able to help choose the color and design so they can look forward to starting school even more. When buying a school backpack, make sure it has a simple and timeless design and is made of high-quality material. Since the school backpack will be a constant companion throughout elementary school, you shouldn't compromise too much on features, functionality, and design.

Back-Friendly School Backpacks for First Graders

A particularly important aspect when buying a school backpack is the correct fit. Ideally, your child will carry the backpack for at least four years, so it should put as little strain on their back as possible, be durable, and stable. Only a properly fitted school backpack supports your child's healthy growth and can prevent postural problems later on. Back-friendly carrying can be achieved not only through the backpack's own weight but also through a padded back panel and individually adjustable, breathable shoulder straps. An additional chest strap secures the schoolbag, and the comfortable hip belt not only provides extra support and padding for your child's back but also distributes the weight more evenly.

The LÄSSIG schoolbags from our popular Unique collection weigh only about 1 kg. This makes them sturdy enough to protect school supplies and light enough to be carried comfortably. This is also confirmed by the Ergonomic Product seal of approval from IGR e.V. This seal ensures that the schoolbag can be optimally adjusted to its young owner:

• Grows individually with the child
• Height-adjustable back panel and shoulder straps
• Back-friendly weight distribution thanks to the hip belt
• Carrying comfort thanks to breathable padding
• Lightweight at only 1.08 kg

Sustainability and safety are key considerations in our schoolbag sets

In accordance with the LÄSSIG philosophy, the Unique schoolbag sets are made from recycled plastic derived from up to 33 used plastic bottles. This process conserves not only resources but, above all, energy. Furthermore, we have completely avoided using animal-derived components in the manufacturing process. This makes the Unique schoolbag set "PETA-Approved Vegan." Naturally, all LÄSSIG school backpacks are tested for harmful substances.

To ensure children arrive at school safely, their school backpack should contribute to road safety. Therefore, the Unique schoolbag set is generously equipped with reflectors for a safe journey to school, making children highly visible to other road users, even in the dark. These practical reflectors are located not only on the front but also on the sides of the schoolbag on all models. Even in prolonged rain and wet conditions, children's backs are brightly illuminated thanks to the integrated neon-colored rain cover with a reflective print. The rain cover can be easily pulled out of its pocket and pulled over the entire schoolbag, keeping school supplies protected.

Ample storage space for books, pencil cases, and more.

A spacious schoolbag or book bag with a functional interior saves a lot of time when searching for books, notebooks, lunchboxes, or pencil cases: school supplies can be stored neatly, and organization is easier. Your children can pack their lunchbox or water bottle in the front compartment, on the side, or directly in the insulated front pocket. Overall, LÄSSIG school backpacks appear very compact and slim and are equipped with an easy-to-use magnetic snap closure.
