The load rule is the fact worth carrying away: a school bag should not exceed ten to fifteen percent of the child's body weight, which for a 30 kg child is three to four and a half kilograms -- fewer books than most school bags actually hold, and the commonest cause of childhood back pain.
Full details →Who the Osprey Farpoint 40 Travel Carry-On Backpack is for
Buy it if: Anyone carrying a full load who wants weight on the hips rather than the shoulders.
Avoid it if: Anyone who needs wheels -- this is carried, not rolled.

Avoid it if: Younger children carrying heavy textbooks -- a hip belt matters more than brand at that load.
