BarbaraJ Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I'm looking for a nice pretty backpack for holidays that isn't huge and doesnt look like a kids school bag. I know what i'd like but had no luck with google. I would prefer cotton look than nylon type. I have a couple of nice over body canvas type fatface bags but prefer backpacks when walking alot. Anyone got a nice one or know where i can get one? I did consider making my own but like a few pockets so could be hard work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 what sort of size are you looking for? I got a mini one from Morrisons, its 10 litre - about the size a child would use. or your could try argos? ***possibles??*** unfortunately, most will resemble childrens school bags, as thats what children use a school bags we have a shop in town called sports world, I dont know if they are nationwide though, that do cheapo sportswear, might be worth a look edited - they are nationwide - website hope this is useful cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeggySue1 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Millets, the camping shop might be worth looking at, or Blacks which is a subsidery of Millets and have more choice of patterns/colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
