Things to look for when buying a personalized backpack
Material
When looking for a material for your backpack, it is best to use leather. However, you need to know that type of leather you want. There are two options, real and faux leather. Real leathers have the more natural/premium appearance. In addition, real leather has much better durability because it does not crack or peel with time. On the other hand, faux leather tends to be cheaper and also animal-free.
If you are looking for a durable option, I’d suggest cowhide as it is highly durable. If you’re looking for a softer feel, I’d recommend Italian leather or calfskin. Nowadays vegan leather is getting some popularity as a good option as well. And of course, if you’re looking for a luxurious/premium look, then suede is your best option.
Color
If you’re getting a durable backpack then you need to be careful when choosing the color, since it’ll stay with you for years. You’ll need to pick a color that you can wear a lot but at the same time not get tired off quickly. I’d suggest the superior black or brown color as they can match with a lot of things in your wardrobe. If you’re into more lively colors, I’d recommend getting two backpacks to switch between them.
Size
It is important to know the dimensions of the backpack you need. To do so, measure your essential items (Laptop/Clothes etc..) to know the dimension you need. It’s always a bummer when you buy a bag and realize it does not fit all your stuff.

Best Backpack for Each Situation
Depending on what you want to use your bag for, will depend on our recommendations, so read below to find out more:
Choosing a personalized backpack for school
A good backpack for school is usually one with multiple compartments for your books, stuff and your laptop. It must also be durable and comfortable to carry around campus, so make sure it has thick and comfortable straps.
Choosing a personalized backpack for commuting
If you’re getting a backpack for the office, you need something stylish, comfortable and has enough room to carry all your stuff. You most probably need it to have a laptop compartment and enough space to hold spare clothes if you need to change into something more comfortable after work or even hit the gym.

How To Get Ride of Scuffs on Your Backpack
Getting rid of light leather scuffs is fairly simple. Using a soft and damp piece of cloth, simply spot clean the scuffs and leave it in air to dry.
For more darker/older scuffs, you should take your backpack to a leather specialist and they’ll sort it out for you. I can’t stress this enough, but never put leather in the washing machine. I can promise that you’ll regret it deeply.
