At Baggins, we like to make back to school shopping as easy as possible on our customers. That’s part of what we offer with our straightforward, easy to browse and quick to load web store. Use our easy online ordering process to get your back to school goods delivered right to your doorstep before the big day.

You can shop in the middle of the night after a day at the beach, or if you have a good data plan, you can even do your ordering while you’re out camping. Otherwise, if you can swing it, come see us in person on Johnson Street in Victoria, BC , next time you’re near.

Without further ado, here are some of our top picks for back to school looks for fall. We’ve paired our newest Herschel backpacks with our favourite pairs of Vans Old Skools to start things off:

Vans Old Skool Leather BlackPlaid

Herschel Dawson Backpack 600D Poly Raven Crosshatch

The Vans Old Skool (Leather) Black/Plaid are going to get you far this school year. It is the classic Old Skool black on black now available in premium leather and featuring plaid printed interiors, reinforced toecaps that stand up to wear and tear, padded collars, and the classic waffle rubber soles.

Pair this pair of Vans with the Herschel Dawson Backpack 600D Poly Raven Crosshatch. This functional backpack has convenient options like magnetic strap closures and a drawstring-cinch closure on the top. With its 13" laptop sleeve it’s perfect for the student on the go.

Vans Old Skool Canvas Brindle

Herschel Pop Quiz Backpack 600D Poly in Indian Teal

Or you can lighten up the look a little with the clean khaki and light brown tones on the Vans Old Skool (Canvas) Brindle. The white laces and eyelets, as well as the subtle white side stripe and waffle soles, make this shoe classic an essential for any fan of the Old Skool.

Pair them with a pop of colour with the Herschel Pop Quiz Backpack 600D Poly in Indian Teal. With a signature fabric liner, padded and fleece-lined 15" laptop sleeve, a front pocket with an internal mesh organizer and key clip, a waterproof zipper detail, a fleece lined sunglass compartment, and an internal media pocket with a headphone port, this backpack has it all.

BTW, we’ve got many other styles of Hesrschel Pop Quizzes in stock if you’re looking for something similar in another pattern or colour.

Vans Old Skool Varsity True White

Herschel Heritage Backpack 600D Poly-Rubber in Black-White

Nexy up, the summer's hottest trend is now ready for fall! These Vans Old Skool (Varsity) True White are a bone white shoe accented with a bright white side stripe and sole. The suede uppers are made even more comfortable with the padded ankle collars, and the rubber waffle soles will keep you comfortable on your feet all day long.

They are going to look sweet with a Herschel Heritage Backpack 600D Poly/Rubber in Black/White, a simple but effective and stylish backpack that features everything a commuter or student could need.

Up next, we want to mention that the Herschel Little America Backpack Mid Poly/Rubber in Metric (top left, below) is a cool new fall design from Herschel for this season.

These new patterned Herschel bags pair nicely with a lot of outerwear. Try either the Little America,  the Herschel Heritage Backpack 600D Poly in Rubber Metric, the Herschel Pop Quiz Backpack 600D Poly in Metric or the Herschel Strand Duffle 600D Poly in Metric.

To go with our reminder, we thought we’d show off six pairs right here:

The Vans Old Skool Velcro in Navy/True White were designed with Velcro straps so kids can get them on and off in a pinch. They were modelled after the Vans classic skate shoe.
