Can anyone recommend a sturdy LV bag/tote to use to carry books/papers?

I'm looking to get one to use as a book bag. Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks!

The BH is a popular one on the forum. Also maybe the new Neverfull? I don't know how much weight it can handle though. The damier Hampsteads could also be good.

I'd definitely go for the BH or the Cabas Mezzo.

For School, I use the daimer saleya in the mm. The thing that I love about it is that I don't have to use it just for school, I can use it to travel, as an everyday bag or whatever.

BH, neverfull, or cabas as you can zip it shut.

The BH would be nice.

Neverfull. Definitely!

i'm looking for a bag to suit the same purpose...do you all think the straps on the neverfull would be able to carry a textbook or two &a computer??

I use Damier Hampstead MM for a work bag and I love it, can be used on the shoulder or as a hand held tote.
I always have it full with books, water bottle and the day's lunch.

Ohhh, do you have modeling pics posted anywhere?

i just got a neverfull and I asked the SA about how much it could carry. she said that LV did a test and it held a ton of stuff ( i dont remember the exact amount of lbs, but it was A LOT!)..so i wouldnt be worried about the handles breaking

I'm thinking of the neverfull now. The price is really decent and I like the look. I want to put a laptop and some books in it as well.

What is a good size then? I want to be able to also use it as a big purse without it looking too strange. Would the PM, MM or GM look better do you think?

^^^ I would go for the GM but depending on your size this could end up looking huge on you so maybe the MM.
