Wir hatten bei Ranzen-Kontor einen wirklich bezaubernden Termin zur ersten Einschulung unseres ältesten Sohnes. Ein besonderer Moment, den sich die Oma nicht nehmen lassen wollte und die den Schulranzen spendiert hat. Die Beratung war absolut kompetent, sowohl was Qualität und Funktionalität angeht als auch in Sachen Rückengesundheit. Es wurde wirklich alles getestet, wie der Ranzen beim Laufen, Rennen und Springen sitzt und komplett auf unseren Sohn eingestellt. Da er für sein Alter schon relativ groß ist, kamen manche Modelle infrage, andere nicht. Genau das wurde fachlich sauber berücksichtigt. Trotzdem durfte er sich am Ende selbst für sein Wunschmodell entscheiden, samt seiner Lieblingsthematik "Star Wars". Ganz besonders hervorheben möchten wir die Verkäuferin Tina, die uns mit sehr viel Fachwissen und gleichzeitig unfassbarer Herzlichkeit begleitet hat. Unser Sohn konnte seinen Namen stolz an die Tafel schreiben und mit seinem neuen Schulranzen ein Erinnerungsfoto mit Urkunde machen. Dazu gab es noch tolle Extras wie eine Sammelmappe, Patches und Reflektoren für den Schulweg. Es wurde wirklich an alles gedacht. Das ist etwas völlig anderes, als einen Schulranzen anonym online zu bestellen. Hier trifft Fachkompetenz auf Herzlichkeit und Empathie, die einen Schulranzenkauf zu einer unvergesslichen Kindheitserinnerung machen. Dafür von Herzen Danke und viele Grüße von Vincent und Familie.

Das war ein ganz toller Termin 🫶. Ganz lieben Dank an die tolle Mitarbeiterin, die sich super Zeit genommen hat und ganz toll mit meinem Sohn kommuniziert hat! Die Auswahl an Ranzen ist aus meiner Sicht sehr umfangreich :-). Am Ende haben wir ein komplettes Set gekauft. Ranzen, Sporttasche, Brotdose etc und sogar die passende Zuckertüte. Ich kann das Geschäft wärmstens empfehlen 💐

Noch nie erlebt: diese wunderbare Kombination von Auswahl, Fachkompetenz, Beratungsqualität, Empathie, Geduld. Andrea ist alles zusammen: Erzieherin, Mutter, Oma, Lehrerin, Freundin. Eine tiefe Kennerin der Kinderseele. Sie versteht es, ein schüchternes Kind zur autonomen Entscheidung zu führen. Es danken das stolze Schulkind Raya und die glücklichen Großeltern Heide und Michael

Wir waren vor wenigen Wochen dort und haben einen Schulranzen gekauft und wir waren sehr positiv überrascht! Wir wurden ganz wunderbar beraten - mit viel Geduld, Kompetenz und ganz ohne Kaufdruck. Anschließend gab es sogar noch ein Foto mit Urkunde, worauf unsere Tochter sehr stolz war!

Wir haben hier einen Koffer gekauft und finden: Ein Geschäft „wie früher” - und das mitten im Zentrum von Berlin! Tolle Preise, große Auswahl, exzellente Beratung plus (entgegen aller Vorurteile über Berlin) große Freundlichkeit. Die Verkäuferin hat uns mit viel Geduld die jeweiligen Vorteile der verschiedenen Kofferalternativen erläutert. Am Ende haben wir uns für einen Travelite-Koffer mit drei Jahren Garantie entschieden, der im Angebot war. Sympathischer Besitzer an der Kasse, der den Eindruck erweckt, dass hier jemand sein Geschäft mit Herzblut führt, „wie früher“ halt. Sechs Sterne! :-)

Wir haben einen Schulranzen für die Einschulung unseres Kindes gekauft. Die Beratung war, obwohl der Laden voll war und wir keinen Termin vorab gebucht haben, phänomenal. Es wurde auf die Wünsche des Kindes eingegangen, die Unterschiede verschiedener Modelle erklärt und vor allem ohne Druck verkauft. Ein Laden, den wir auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen werden. 👍

Absolute recommend. It was a relief to find this store after being lost in a sea of Schulranzen, all with different specs and measurements. The consultation made the process fun, easy, and special for my daughter. Wonderful, competent staff.

Great shop with a huge offer/variety of school bags and most importantly, a top notch service. We went with our son to get his first school bag and we left the shop very satisfied, long time we have had not had such a good customer experience. Thanks and keep it up.

The staff here are so helpful and kind. They give you space to browse but are also very knowledgeable about what items they have that will fit your needs. I left with a new backpack and luggage piece - exactly what I came in for!

No great design without the right ergonomics

Stylish, practical, ergonomic – what a children's backpack should bring to the table

Children's backpacks usually have one thing in abundance – a wonderful design that makes both children's and parents' hearts beat a little faster. Most children, of course, want a backpack featuring their favourite animal or character. But there's more to consider when buying one. The backpack should be a perfect match for your child's build, and the right capacity matters just as much. To judge that properly, advice in person is definitely the way to go – we'll gladly help you choose the right backpack for your child here at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße in Berlin.

Stylish, practical, ergonomic – what a children's backpack should bring to the table

Why expert advice matters even for a children's backpack

Many people assume the only tricky decision when buying a children's backpack is choosing the right design. In reality, though, it's the relationship between your child's height and the size of the backpack that really counts. That's hard to gauge online, so it's best tested with expert advice in person. To help you find the right backpack that perfectly suits your child's build, we'll gladly advise you here at Das Ranzen-Kontor at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße in Berlin. We can also show you the all-important function of the chest strap and how to adjust the backpack as your child hits the next growth spurt.

1Size, capacity and design are what count

What do you need?

Before we dive into our big selection of children's backpacks, we start by asking what exactly you need: How old and how tall is your child? Is the backpack for daycare, preschool or simply for leisure? What needs to fit inside? Do you have a favourite brand in mind, or a particular design already in mind – a character or an animal, perhaps – or should the backpack simply be blue, pink or yellow? Plenty of questions for us to work through together, so we can then pick out only the models that fit and you're never overwhelmed by the choice.

2Favourite animal or superhero – you decide!

Spoilt for choice

Once we've talked through and gathered all your wishes for the new backpack together, we'll show you the range and what to look out for. As your child tries them on, we pay particular attention to making sure the backpack is a perfect fit for their back length and that the balance between body height and backpack size is just right. The capacity matters too – feel free to bring along the things that will later go inside, so we can try out together just how much room the backpack needs. Only once we've found a model where the size and capacity are spot on do we move on to choosing the design. Most brands offer their backpacks in several designs, so there's something for every taste – now all that's left is deciding between the favourite animal and the favourite character!

Off on an adventure with your new backpack!

Once the backpack is chosen, the next adventures can begin! For many children and parents, daycare and preschool are exciting new chapters – and with the new backpack you're perfectly kitted out for them. To make sure you have everything you need, many brands offer matching accessories for their backpacks, such as water bottles. We're happy to advise you on these too and show you the full range of accessories. And when the next exciting chapter – school – comes knocking, we'll gladly be by your side to help you choose the right satchel.

FAQ

Your top questions about buying a school bag

How many different brands do you offer?

Our range includes 7 brands that make children's backpacks. Not all of them offer models for daycare, leisure and school alike, but we have the right backpack for every purpose here in the shop and are always happy to help you choose the right model.

Where can I see and try out your children's backpacks?

You'll find our big selection of children's backpacks in our shop, Das Ranzen-Kontor at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße in Berlin. We're here for you Monday to Saturday from 10:00 to 20:00, ready to advise you on children's backpacks, satchels, suitcases and more.

I already know which model I want – can I order it from you online?

We don't have our own online shop at the moment. You're very welcome, though, to reserve or pre-order your favourite model with us and simply pick it up at Das Ranzen-Kontor at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße in Berlin. The easiest way to send us your order is by email at kontakt@schulranzen-Friedrichstraße Station.de or by phone on 030 / 23 00 20 23.

Do you also carry satchels in your range?

Yes, we do! Alongside our big selection of children's backpacks, we also offer satchels – for primary school children and older pupils alike – and we're of course happy to advise you on your purchase. Among many others, you'll find the brands Ergobag, Step by Step, Scout, DerDieDas and McNeill with us. We also carry backpacks, suitcases, leather goods and travel accessories here at Das Ranzen-Kontor at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße in Berlin.

I'd love to surprise my child with the backpack – do they have to be there for the purchase?

Of course, your child doesn't have to be there for the purchase if you'd like to surprise them with the new backpack. That said, it does help if children try the new backpack on, so we can check carefully whether its ergonomics are a good fit for your child. If that isn't possible, you're welcome to drop by again afterwards with your child and the backpack so we can take a look together at whether the model is right – and exchange it for a better-fitting one if need be.

Can the backpacks handle a full day outdoors in the rain?

Many children's backpacks are dirt- and water-repellent, so they already give the contents good protection. Some brands also make special outdoor backpacks that can take even more than the standard ones. Just ask our specialist team – they'll gladly advise you and show you the right models.
