For every STATE product purchased we support American children and families in need, in the ways they need it most.
FOR THE PEOPLE AND PLANET WE SHARE
We don't cut corners and are consistently pushing ourselves with one rule for every material we use: it has to be the best option for you, and the least harmful option for the planet.
THOUGHTFUL DESIGN
Every pocket, every strap, every zipper is obsessively thought through, so you get everything you need and nothing you don't. Designed by real parents who want bags that work for themselves and their kids.
My 5th graders and I love this bag. The color, fabric and style. It’s so functional with all the books she needs to bring home.
My son loves it and you can tell it is well made. It is LARGE! He's a smaller 4th grader and he has enough room for anything could ever need to take.
My kids live their STATE backpacks! Everything fit!
It’s fabulous. We love it

My 6 year old son is obsessed with green and had to have this bag! There is some stuffing to give dimension to the chevron part, but it’s not heavy or overwhelming. I think it is way too big for him but he refused to exchange it, he’s been carrying it for a month now and he couldn’t be happier and it holds up to him throwing it everywhere. It still looks brand new. My recommendation to parents of 1st-3rd graders is size down and don’t let the kids see the options for the larger bags. 😂
My kids loved these! It was like Christmas opening up the box when they arrived. They were impressed with the large size and all the storage pockets inside. So glad I went with these over my usual backpacks.
These are my 3 children’s favorite backpacks. They are in 7th, 3rd, and 2nd. Went with the large for each. When they opened up the box it was like Christmas!! Just something about the look they each loved and were excited about. They were especially impressed with the size and all the storage pockets inside. So I was glad that I went with these this year and hope they will last.
Love the style, but one of the zippers already broke, and my daughter has only used it at school for about one month now
I bought this to use as a diaper bag and LOVE how much room it has. I have a 3 year old son and a 1 year old daughter and it fits all of their stuff perfectly. Plus, it’s really comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Worth every penny!

LOVE this backpack! It is beautiful, so roomy, and well organized. It is built so well and so far no rips or tears. Hoping it will last a long time. My daughter says it's very comfortable and she loves it!
At first sight, you can tell the great quality, the sizing is also something to highlight!
Kid says - Wish it had another pocket. Love the colors and the interior design with the earth fabric. Kid says her water bottle is a tight fit (24 oz owala) but it works.
I am absolutely thrilled with this book bag. The functional design is perfect for my daughter (really anyone) who needs to stay organized on the go. The bag offers plenty of compartments, which makes it easy for my daughter to keep her books, laptop, and other essentials neatly separated and easy to access. The material feels durable and high-quality, so I know it will last a long time. I love that there are small pockets for things like pens, keys, and chargers. It's not just practical; it's also comfortable to wear, even when packed full.
Overall, this is the best book bag l've purchased, and I highly recommend it to anyone who values both function and quality! We will never go back to any other brand for book bags.
We are so far very happy with this backpack. It has lots of room- more room than my son needs at the moment but will come in handy next year when he moves on to middle school. We plan on this lasting many years! It would work well as a travel bag for him as well.
This one is great! The puffy gorgeous colors look great. Last year we had one that was rainbow ombré that I’d give one star to because it had a covering that peeled off all year and then caused it to mold. This year I said none that have that plastic thing and this one does not. Back to the quality I’ve known from previous state bags
Bought this for my 4th grader and she loves it! Very roomy, fits her laptop, folder and books with room for a sweater and snacks. She can fit everything in comfortably without any trouble squeezing it all in! She loves the fun print and the fact it has tons of hooks for her to add her keyrings and charms. We always got the pottery barn backpacks, but even the large size was getting cramped and getting difficult to fit everything. Would recommend this bag !
One of the best buys for my kid! The quality is outstanding and the designs are very lovable. My kid has been getting compliments non-stop!
Hope to get more State products.
- Happy Mom!
Amazing backpack! My daughter can fit so many items inside it. She’s disabled and 10 years old. We have lots of diapers, change of clothing, lunch, drink bottle. The quality is amazing. Highly recommend this backpack.
My daughter is in 6th grade and is big for her age, the large size bag fits perfectly. She was instantly attracted to the rainbow animal print. The bag is spacious with lots of great pockets and nooks to hold everything. The material is very high quality. Great bag, great company and mission.
This is perfect for my growing-too-fast sixth grader. You can already see how durable the bag is and she loves the cool factor of the different colored straps. Definitely a winner!
We love our STATE backpacks! I have tried other brands, but always come back to ordering a STATE backpack because I know it will survive the school year. Plus, they have cool designs. This year's black and green checkered puffy design is my favorite so far! It's plenty big enough for my 5th grader's books and all the things he needs to carry around (it's a lot 😳). It also perfectly fits his 32oz water bottle in the side pocket so he's not left carrying it.
Great backpack for my 5th grade son and is holding up well so far with all the books!
Love it! It’s cool, sturdy, and the separate compartments are perfect for keeping things organized.
I was disappointed when I contacted customer service that somehow the “factory setting” of the color black was used on my sons navy blue back pack so the personalization is invisible I chose the color white but somehow when the order was submitted it was reset…customer service is poor in my opinion especially for a returning customer
Just buy it, don’t think twice! I am addicted building my gold state bag collection 😊
This is our first state bag and it’s amazing. My daughter who is in the 5th grade loves all the pockets and also loves the print. She has a lot of stuff to take to school because of all her activities and this backpack does the job!! I like the material because it doesn’t seem to get dirty easy to just wipe off. This will not be our last purchase
My 9-year old (very picky) daughter LOVES her school bag! She was able to customize it with the patches she selected. As a parent, I really appreciate how sturdy the backpack is, particularly given that my daughter has so much to carry (water bottle, flute, chromebook, etc). The bag easily holds all of these heavy items. Highly recommend!!!
This backpack is super spacious and we will definitely have so much room for our first grader to put snow pants, winter gear, etc. in for the colder months. And it’s not been bulky or bothersome for him to carry around. Also, the inner material is super easy to clean. HIGHLY recommend this backpack!
After using our first State backpack all through Elementary, we upgraded to the larger size for the move to middle school.
They are great bags and indestructable!
