kids backpacks

Trixie backpacks are water-repellent — which means they'll handle a rainy school run or an accidental puddle splash without a worry. The water-repellent coating keeps the contents dry during everyday use. They're not fully waterproof for submersion, but the acrylic coating does a brilliant job of shielding your child's belongings from the kind of weather a typical school day throws at them. Keep in mind that frequent washing can gradually reduce this coating over time, so spot cleaning is always the gentler option.

Absolutely — and that's half the fun! Every Trixie animal friend appears across the full product range, so your little one can build their very own matching set. Pick a favourite animal friend and complete the look with a matching pencil case, lunch box, and water bottle featuring the same playful design. Whether they're devoted to Mrs. Elephant, Mr. Lion, or one of our newer animal friends, the whole collection travels together — from daycare all the way through to primary school.

Durable products only stay durable when they're cared for properly — and that's something we feel strongly about! For everyday stains, we recommend removing spots with a damp cloth. If a deeper clean is needed, wash at 30°, avoid tumble drying as it affects the recycled materials, and never use bleach, as it can leave white marks on the organic cotton. Avoid dry cleaning too, as it can cause shrinkage. The gentler you are with the backpack, the longer it'll last — and the more adventures it can go on.
