Your little soccer star will adore this iconic football-style backpack from Sportpax. It looks great, is surprisingly tough (has no fear of mud) and has plenty of room inside for school or day-out essentials. Or, indeed, football kit.

What makes it stand out, quite literally, is its solid shell which holds the football shape. No droopy rucksack, this. Inside the ball is fully-lined, with zipped pocket, key holder clip, and a handy series of pockets for valuables.

The back of the backpack is generously padded, with two comfortable and adjustable shoulder straps and a strong top carrying handle. There's a reassuringly chunky, strong white zip, too.

How much carrying space is there inside? Easily plenty for a child's packed lunch, water bottle, money and more.

And spot on as a stylish backpack for grownups, too. As worn by Victoria Beckham.

Wipes clean with a damp cloth.
