School satchel countdown: Cologne's children storm the shops!

School satchel countdown: Cologne's children storm the shops!
The purchase of a school socket has long since developed into an important event for families in Cologne. Kalle, a six-year-old boy, recently selected his new satchel, which is provided with animal motifs in a striking green-blue design. These motifs are attached with Velcro, which enables Kalle to design its satchel individually. Rundschau Online reports that the buying satchel has now become so great that it is compared with the purchase of a wedding dress.
In Cologne there are several specialty shops that open their doors in good time before school to support parents and children in choosing the right satchel. The leading addresses include leather goods Voegels and Ortloff, which start sales in January. Both businesses offer appointments to ensure individual advice. According to Kölner district love , leather goods Voegels achieve about 30% of its annual sales through the sale of satchel, while Ortloff is significantly less dependent with about 10%.
early planning and trends
The sanctuary begins more than half a year before school starts, which means that many families already make their purchases in March. Due to the increasing popularity, many parents use social media and influencers to find out more about current models and trends. The prices for the satchel are usually between 250 and 300 euros. Last year models are often cheaper, while accessories such as drinking bottles and lunch cans can raise the total amount to up to 500 euros.
An important aspect in today's world is the possibility of personalizing satchel individually. Parents can enjoy their children by selecting Velcro pictures, trailers or magnets to create unique designs. Children can compare different models in the shops and try on the satchels directly. Lederwaren Voegels has an impressive selection of brands, including Scout, Ergobag and Stepbystep.
social responsibility and support
In Cologne, around 10,000 elementary school students are enrolled annually. It is therefore hardly surprising that social initiatives were also launched to support families in financial need. Children from families with a Cologne pass can apply for up to 100 euros in grants for school materials. In addition, the Cologne Tatort Association is involved with the project "We start-no child without school bags!"
The satchel weeks at leather goods Voegels, which take place from January 15 to May 31, 2024, offer an extensive school satchel world on over 200 square meters and individual advice from trained staff. With every purchase of a satchel set, buyers receive a free school starter box from Faber, which contains other useful articles. This is how the satchel weeks are transformed into a lasting experience for the whole family.
In Cologne, the baking school and the associated planning have developed into a significant social event that not only increases the anticipation for schooling, but also promotes the sense of community.
