Back To The Books
All the essentials you need for heading back to school.
Heading back to school, college, or uni is more than just flipping the calendar to a new term—it’s a chance to reset, refresh, and set yourself up for success. Whether you’re tackling your first semester or you’re a seasoned pro at balancing classes, study sessions, and coffee runs, having the right essentials can make all the difference. And no, we’re not just talking about notebooks and pens (though they’re important too).
This season, it’s all about combining function with style. From bags that carry your life (and look good doing it) to tech that keeps you on top of deadlines, we’ve curated a list of must-haves to make your return as seamless as possible. Think sleek laptop bags, noise-cancelling headphones for uninterrupted focus, and accessories that add a personal touch to your everyday routine.
Ready to start the term on the right foot? Explore Sortd’s guide for all the back-to-the-books essentials you need to feel prepared, polished, and ready to take on whatever the semester throws your way.
