New bundles of teen and kid backpacks, lunch bags and pencil cases in bold colors

TORONTO , July 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Although school just ended, busy parents know it is never too early to start planning for the upcoming school year. For the first time, Roots, the global lifestyle brand inspired by the Canadian outdoors, will sell an exclusively licensed collection of back-to-school accessories on Amazon.ca. Customers can purchase each item separate or in three piece bundles for teens and kids consisting of a backpack, a lunch bag (with accompanying icepack in the teen bundles), and a pencil case in 13 new eye-catching patterns and colors.

Whether shopping for a young child or a teenager, parents will find that these new accessories offer the same superior quality that Roots is known for. Backpacks and pencil cases are made of high-quality, water-repellant materials, providing protection for all the wonders kids have stored inside, even when caught in the rain. Each bundle comes with a matching lunch bag that features an extra-large main compartment and easy-to-clean insulated lining that keeps food fresh for over eight hours. With the backpack's extra-padded back and shoulder straps for additional support, students will start the school year feeling comfortable, while looking stylish.
