Can confirm, I went to a ‘posh’ girls school and my God you were nothing if you didn’t have a McWilliams bag!!!

Never heard of them either. They look like a really impractical shape for a school bag.
I wasn’t in the posh schools and never owned a McWilliams bag- still bitter to this day (joke) but Jaysus for all the hype back in the day I’m kind of glad; weren’t they an awful looking bag!!
Hands up, I’m also a posh girls school grad. Completely agree. Not proud of it, but it was def a thing.
Fair play for admitting to it 
did the same myself in my school X

I went to the local school that accepted everyone from high achievers to local scum, no one had those bags, it was all jansport, had a look recently as the brand was recommended to me and they do travel bags now so she could get one for Pearl without the trademark stripes. The price they are though, yes jansport was just as pricey but didn’t look as tacky.
I’ve only heard Cliona o Connor mention them before
They’re a sailing bag
Aka only a small section of monied society would use them
Like the dubarry shoes maybe? Weren’t they a yacht shoe too
God this country is cracked

Haha i had a sporthouse too! No-one in UCC had heard of them i tell ya
Yeah dubarrys were banned in my school as they weren’t school shoes
Looooved my Jansport bags, absolutely couldn't stany the sporthouse ones they looked so big and heavy. They're the only bag I see teens with nowadays.
The sailing bags popular in my old swimming circle too, I am happy with my gear bag but I used to see them a lot
No way they were what my school pushed for people to wear (as well as the AV8's), a lot of parents said no because they were expensive. I had them and they used to KILL my feet. I had a separate pair of shoes in my locker for walking home.
God I must be old because nobody gave a god given shite what bags we wore to school. We all did have Dubarrys though, or deck shoes as we called them 
She had this herself when she was in college of comm
My sister went to the college of comm, no one had those bags, my sister would have been a year behind her although my sister was in a different department everyone in the main building saw each other at some point of the week. Really thought she was above people didn’t she
I saw her in the Boots on Half Moon Street a while ago and she was looking around to see who was looking at her. She really thinks she’s something lol.
