MONTREAL – Just like hockey season, back-to-school time is fast approaching. Here are some Tricolore Sports finds that will help make the return to classrooms successful—and stylish—for Habs fans this fall.

Starting with the essentials

The key component of back-to-school gear is of course the schoolbag, and the “Montreal Canadiens AOP Backpack” will have pupils looking to rep the bleu-blanc-rouge covered—literally. The bag features an all-over print complete with home and away jerseys, goal lights, hockey sticks, and even Youppi!

Cafeteria cool

Next up is a must for keeping lunches—and looks—fresh. The Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki “jersey” lunch boxes are perfect for young scholars who love to fill up on hockey talk between bites.

Combining comfort and fandom

This one’s for students looking to rep their favorite player during their favorite subjects. The biggest school-aged fans of Arber Xhekaj, Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki are sure to stand out in the classroom and the schoolyard in the Canadiens’ emblematic red.

Habs fan from head to toe

Caps may not be allowed in the classroom, but Tricolore Sports has a variety of headwear options for recess and the school bus, not to mention for keeping ears warm in the winter. New in-store for the fall is the “Canadiens Junior Snapback Hat” made in collaboration with Mitchell & Ness, while for the colder months, the “Montreal Canadiens Red Pompom Junior Tuque” is a returning classic.

Upgrade homework time

Unfortunately, “hockey” is not an official school subject, but the Habs can still keep schoolwork fun. Tricolore Sports has Canadiens-branded notebooks and pencil sets to help put the “CH” in “CHemistry homework” and more.

The notebooks and pencils are also available in a full “Tricolore Sports Back-to-School Bundle” including the backpack and lunch boxes above, plus a pencil case, water bottle, and a free surprise gift.

Speaking of surprise gifts, show this gift guide in-store at the Tricolore Sports Bell Centre location and receive a free gift with any purchase until Friday, Aug. 23, 2024.

With that, wishing all Habs fans a successful and fun school year!
