School Satchel Weight Comparison

All our models weigh less than 1,300 grams, in accordance with DIN 58124. There are even models that weigh around 800 grams, making them extremely lightweight.

PELVIC FIN BELT

The pelvic fin belt wraps around your child's waist and ensures that the weight is better distributed. By relieving the shoulders, the school satchel feels significantly lighter.

TIP: WEIGHT INCLUDING SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND FOOD

In most cases, Kids do not carry the school satchel empty. To find out if it is too heavy, there is a simple method. Just look from the side to see how far your child leans forward. Up to 15 degrees, meaning a slight forward bend, is completely normal here. If the bend goes significantly beyond that, reduce the weight if possible.

TIPS FOR WEIGHT REDUCTION

We recommend that you choose a school satchel with as little empty weight as possible, as your child already carries a heavy load with all the school books on their back.

• - Pack the school satchel together with your child the evening before and make sure that only notebooks and books needed for the next day at school are packed
• - Also use a lightweight lunchbox and water bottle
• - Avoid unnecessary ballast such as collector's albums or stuffed animals

Good weight distribution is important: pack heavy books at the back so they are carried directly against the back, and lighter items in front.

Comparison of Volume and Dimensions for School Satchels

The models vary quite significantly in their liter capacities. This means there is the right option for every body size. Often, parents can already estimate how the child’s growth will progress. So they can anticipate whether a slightly larger version might be suitable in advance.
