However in fact schools have students of all shapes and sizes, with all kinds of needs - and ages - including higher education and vocational training institutions.

As specialist manufacturers of bags and leather goods, Shugon caters for the various requirements. For university students, the Bracknell laptop backpack is popular as a functional multi-purpose backpack with laptop section. As the stylish bag does not look like a classic laptop backpack, the student can carry their laptop around without making it obvious they have an expensive laptop in their bag.

Shugon also supplies leather folders for university graduation, and a range of leather gifts such as document wallets, business card holders and luggage tags for alumni and university web-based merchandising, as they make ideal souvenirs.

Bags supplied to vocational schools include police, IT, military, medical, airline and driving training institutions. The types of bags range from backpacks and briefcases containing training material to cabin bags and first aid kits.

With an in-house design and development team, Shugon can supply bespoke bags and leather goods to order in addition to items from the large range held in stock for prompt delivery.

A key priority for every school this new school year is the wellbeing of its pupils. With the increase in popularity of TV and computer games rather than playing outside, and unhealthy fast-food diets more and more school-age children are already suffering from obesity.

Last year sugary fizzy drinks were identified as a major culprit, and many local authorities pledged to encourage children to simply drink more water. Another way to improve fitness is to make PE and sports classes more popular. New branches of PE are being developed, such as dance and martial arts, to motivate youngsters to keep fit in a more palatable way.

Bag manufacturer Shugon has taken this into account. Almost all the bags in the UK range feature a bottle holder so water can be carried conveniently, including the Washington and Orlando school bag backpacks. Shugon also supplies an insulated 0.5 litre Palma bottle holder with shoulder strap, and a side pocket. All the bags are designed for easy decoration.

A number of sports holdalls are also in Shugon’s UK stock including the large America holdall and matching Florida trolley holdall, and the smaller California which also has two end pockets.

There is the Singapore, a slim sports backpack with vertical front pocket, and the stylish Greenwich - a budget sports holdall with single compartment. For swimming, the Malaga frosted PVC shoulder bag is ideal.
