Students need at least two Herschel Supply products to be prepared for school. For the general items, a backpack or messenger bag is perfect to carry school books, note paper, pens, and their laptop. Specifically for their laptop, students must have a padded, dedicated laptop sleeve. I’ll go into more details about why I am making this claim, and then you can enter for a chance to win a pair of Herschel products so you are prepared when the school season begins.
School can be brutal on laptops and books
How many backpacks have you bought over the years? I have bought many … too many to count in fact. Some years, I’ve had to buy several after a backpack was damaged by weather or something. I remember a friend told me they forgot their child’s backpack on the roof once: it didn’t survive getting batted around when it fell onto the highway!
My children are done school now, but my wife is still in school, as a teacher, so I’m still buying backpacks—for her! And her favourite brand is Herschel. Trust me: she has tried many. She loves the style, the versatility, and the comfort carrying her Herschel backpack: from our island home, onto the ferry, on the train into Vancouver and back, her books and tech are protected. She also uses a Herschel sleeve to protect her laptop. She says, “I’d be lost if my laptop broke … all my lessons and notes and assignments are on there.” Yes she backs up her data, but a broken laptop would seriously set her back.
I hope some of your can relate to my wife’s situation. Students, teachers, and many others rely on Herschel products … and for good reasons.
Herschel multipurpose bags perform an essential service
Every student needs a backpack or messenger bag. In an era where textbooks are only a portion of a student’s learning arsenal, these bags offer expansive storage space for various items, from notebooks and tablets to calculators, water bottles, and lunch boxes. Herschel bags, with their multiple compartments, promote organization and ease of access, reducing the stress of misplaced items and keeping the learning process streamlined and efficient.
Herschel’s multipurpose bags are renowned for their robustness and longevity, crafted from high-quality materials that withstand daily wear and tear. Their ergonomic design ensures comfort, a critical feature considering the amount of time students spend carrying their bags around. Additionally, Herschel bags come in an array of trendy designs and colours, allowing students to express their individual style while maintaining practical functionality.
Herschel laptop sleeves play a crucial role in your life
Every student has a laptop and on that laptop is the entirety of their student life: protection is of utmost importance. As I said above, my wife backs up her data: I bet most students don’t! Herschel laptop sleeves are crafted to offer maximum protection, with protective padding that shields laptops from physical shocks and damages. Water-resistant properties offer protection against accidental spills, a common occurrence in student life.
Along with providing protection, Herschel laptop sleeves add an extra layer of convenience. Lightweight and slim, they’re easy to carry around and can be effortlessly slipped into Herschel backpacks or messenger bags. This ensures that students’ laptops are always accessible whenever needed.
I firmly believe a student needs both of these items: a multipurpose bag and a laptop sleeve. That is why this contest is giving away both to each winner … and there are going to be three winners! Follow the instructions carefully so you have the best chance to win.

Never forget about food in a backpack over Christmas vacation
Pizza Lunchables!
tuna fish sandwich
he’s tried to put a pancake in his backpack
I think kids should never put live animals in backpacks. Had my little one try to sneak our pet hamster for show & tell. Did not make it to school, but I can’t imagine what could of happened if they did. lol
A skunk for obvious potential spray smell reasons.
farts
Limberger cheese! The worst!
Hand Sanitizer! If you put as much into your bag that is as I do! Just ends up spilling and leaving you with a weird feeling in it!
water bottles that didn’t seal properly, destroy everything in the bag,
NO SOUP!
From my own experience, children should never put their parent’s electric drill in their backpack for show and tell. It is just too much to explain to the teacher.
Fresh fruit because that’s always a disaster
Children should not bring chocolate bars during hot weather! it will melt and look unpleasant
banana peels – they rot fast!

fresh furuits – often turn moldy if forgotten and mushy and may leak out of container.
No picking up dirty beer cans for the refund – the smell is everywhere.

Bananas – they will turn brown right away and become muhy an d what a mess!
Their pet gerbil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! never bring a live pet in your backpack!!!
Egg salad sandwiches – the smell lingers….
Spoiled food is the worst to clean up, also leaves a smell, so you have to wipe it up and air it out.
Spraying Febreze helps to deodorize.
Leaky containers! Always leave a big mess!
Please never put any type of sandwich in your child’s backpack. It will get squished and if your child does not eat it that day and its left in the backpack for awhile. Well you are asking for trouble from the smell to the mess it leaves behind. thank you
The 15-16″ Herschel Anchor laptop sleeve would work best and meet our needs when we travel by car with its well padded and sturdy fabric.
Children should never bring a chocolate bar on a hot school day. They may end up with a look-alike pile of shhh
Melted Babybel cheese wax in their backpacks is the worst to clean up.

I can make a list lol
Slime, yogurt, milk . So many messes to clean
Chocolate because they melt and it become disguising
Slime should never go in a backpack! It’s always funny in hind sight, but ohhhh what a mess.
Children should never decide to put their puppy in their bag without telling mom and take that puppy to school without permission…. The puppy had fun but the teachers did not want to babysit puppy….. 🙂

chocolate in a backpack could be very messy by lunchtime
On my daughter’s first day of JK a parent was to come in with them. There was a boy in her class and the dad had come in with him and apparently packed his lunch. It was a huge ziplock bag full of strawberries. Needless to say they were all squished and gross.
tuna fish sandwich
