What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "This is the kind of backpack I wish I had as a kid-it fits everything without being too bulky, and the safety whistle and name tag are nice touches. My kid loves the pockets and I love that it's durable and made with recycled materials." The Mission 18L Pack from DAKINE gives young adventurers the gear they need to tackle every school day head-on. Designed for practical daily use with fun, functional details, this compact pack offers enough space for books, folders, lunch, and tech, all without overwhelming smaller frames. The large main compartment includes a dedicated laptop sleeve, while a front organizer pocket neatly stores pens, pencils, and daily essentials. Multiple mesh side pockets keep water bottles within reach, and reflective details combined with an adjustable sternum strap and built-in safety whistle add peace of mind during the daily commute. A soft, padded back panel keeps things comfortable, and the interior name label makes sure it always finds its way home. With recycled polyester construction and mission-ready style, this pack has school days totally dialed.
