I'm thinking about using it for school could I fit binders or folders in it?

Notebooks and pad papers will fit but I don't think the large thick binders would fit. I'd use a regular backpack for those large thick binders.

Yes, depends on how much binders or folders. The contents will be protected from the weather.

Because of the shape of the bag you may be able to fit 1 1"binder and its questionable. It's a great pack but not for the use you want it for

I bought it for my son who is in 5th grade for school. None of his books, binder, folders fit through the zipper opening. He uses it as an overnight bag or for his tablet and handheld devices. Needless to say I had to buy another backpack for him. I would not suggest this bag for school for any grade. Check measurements and get something much larger than this instead. Good luck

Yes, it's plenty big enough to fit two-three text books, AND a 1inch binder. OR lots of spirals. OR two-three 1.5inch binders. :) Hope this helps!

I could fit two 3" A4/US letter binders face-to-face in the back section with my laptop (tight, but doable) AND have room for other items in the front section. If you have a bulky laptop, you might be able to only get one binder in with it.

My elementary schooler uses it for 3 Ring binder and lunchbag folded on top. I don't think you can get a High school textbook AND 'several' notebooks in it.

Yes definitely. In addition to my laptop, there is space for files, folders, a few books, office supplies.

Yes it will, I have one big folder, two books, and two note pads in the compartment,and a handy file folder and two pencil bags plus my wallet and planner in the middle compartment your stuff will definitely fit. Its a roomy bag, plus I can also fit my lunch bag. Its an awesome backpack a am totally satisfied. I hope I answered your question.

A reg piece of paperpaper fit perfectly but I'm sure a folder bigger than that would. Its a pretty small backpack.

You could fit text books but it's a little smaller than standert school back pack size

I carry my laptop, ipad, charger, pens, office supplies, etc. In addition I carry two binders about 1" thick and everything fits fine. I have an old Dell laptop that is pretty thick and heavy so if you have a MBP you should be fine with that and a couple of books plus school supplies. It's a very nice comfortable bag.

Yes. Depends on the binder's width really, but normally you could be able to fit a couple, plus your laptop

Yes, it will hold a 3 inch binder plus other items and yes it fits into the narrow middle school lockers. My middle schooler can't take the bag to class either.

Yes it can. I bought this for my sisters and they were able to fit all there school work into the bag perfectly. My sisters are elementary and Middle school students.

You would have to measure the textbook when it's open. I put binders on it. Also, the thickness of the textbook might be an issue. The clips that hold the book open is very strong.

This could function as a school backpack, but that depends on how much you intend to carry. A laptop will take up some space and the rest can be notebooks; that would work. But the books you intend to carry are pretty big, then this probably won't work. I carry my laptop, a binder, and two notepads and it's pretty full.

Yes. The compartment can hold a standard size student folder without problem and the zipper can still close all the way. Any bigger folder can still go in, but you won't be able to zip it all the way close.

I think you could, depending on how big the binder is. You could measure the binder and compare it with the dimensions listed in Amazon's description of the product, to make doubly sure. To test it, I put a binder in my safe and it fit nicely.

No, its sorta flimsy. I dont carry any binders in mine, but im sure you can carry one. The strap will brake if you carry a textbook though.
