Why Choose a Kite / GoPack High School Backpack?
- Ergonomic structure: shaped back panel and supportive straps help keep the load stable during longer wear time.
- Smart capacity (typically 20–30L): fits textbooks, binders, and most 13–15.6” laptops without extra bulk.
- Durable & weather-ready: water-resistant fabrics and reinforced stitching for full school-year use.
- Organization that matters: sections for books, tech, chargers, lunch, and essentials to reduce shifting.
- Transit-friendly carry: a compact profile feels better on TTC, GO Transit, buses, and crowded hallways.
- Reflective details: added visibility during early mornings and late commutes.
What size backpack is best for high school in Canada?
For most students, the practical everyday range is 22–26L. Go closer to 20–22L for lighter or digital-heavy routines with frequent locker use. Move up toward 27–30L only if the student regularly carries gym gear, tech kits, or extra equipment.
- Laptop carry: choose a padded tech section and keep heavier items closer to the back panel.
- Locker fit: slimmer depth is usually easier than extra width.
- Commute: avoid oversized bags that stick out on transit and stairs.

School Essentials to Pair With Your Backpack
High School Backpack FAQ
What size backpack is best for high school students?
For most students, 22–26L is the best everyday range. Go smaller if the routine is light; go bigger only if extra gear is carried daily.
Do these backpacks fit laptops?
Most teen backpacks include padded sections suitable for 13–15.6” laptops and tablets. Check each product page for the exact fit.
What matters more: liters or dimensions?
Both. Liters are a good starting point, but a slimmer profile often feels better for lockers and transit than a deeper, bulkier bag.
Where do you ship from?
Orders are fulfilled from Toronto, Canada, with shipping available across Canada and (where offered) the USA.
