      BIG THANK You for all inputs here!

      I am about to get a school bag too
      as my girl's bag was too big for her, and heavy on its own,
      though ergonomic. So no choice but to use till end of year.

      How about the POPULAR's brand and IMPACT?

      YES! Will check out the SPI ones.
      At least not so headache over so many brands! :faint:
      We hv 2 Popular brand sch bag. IMO it is too big for lower primary if the child is of a small build. My elder boy carried one from P4 to P6. Though the bag is still in good condition, the cushion on the straps has worn off. My boy packs his sch bag to the max daily. Very heavy load.

      I have kept the other Popular bag which my younger boy was using as the sch bus is already very packed. It was hard for him to get off the bus. Now he is using a kiddy looking bag that can stand upright on its own and has good cushion on the straps.

        I have mentioned in another thread that my boy used SPI from P1 to P5. So it is a very sturdy and tough bag. Then we changed to Deuter (Size L )because the SPI bag was getting too small for his books. For Deuter, look at the school bag range as they are ergonomic.


        We have not used the other two brands, so cannot comment. Hope that helps. πŸ˜„
        I like Deuter design, very cool.

        Can we find the ergonomic ones in dept stores? The ones I saw at OG do not seem to be ergonomic. My elder boy prefers a bag that can stand upright on its own. TIA your advice.

          Ok Thanks Jennifer.

          Will check out the POPULAR brand separately as I remembered
          there was 2 versions, one small the other big. And both POPULAR and
          IMPACT brands are light on its own...
          :thankyou:

                Do these stores carry Deuter too?

                I think SPI is a bit kiddy for my elder boy who is going to sec 1 next year. πŸ˜‰

                  Is there 2 sizes for the Popular house brand? I could only find the large one at Bt Timah Plaza, Bt Panjang Plaza and Lot 1. 😒

                    ABSOLUTELY!!

                    For Deuter, I noticed that can get very good price during Carrefour Deuter Fair. :celebrate:

                    I find Deuter good coz it can take a lot of abuse!

                      Really?

                      I think I can use my ten fingers to count the number of times I visit Carrefour :oops:

                      Do you know when the fair might be held? MTIA.
