I was provided four Five Star® products, two for review and two for a giveaway to you, my readers, by FiveStar®. Regardless, all opinions are my own.
Send your kids back to school in style this year with Mead Five Star® and two of their newest products: the Five Star® 2” Zipper Binder plus Expansion Pocket and the Five Star® Expandable Backpack!
For over 30 years Five Star® has been providing students with innovative, durable and stylish school supplies and organizational gear to help them succeed socially and academically. From notebooks to binders to folders to pencil pouches, Five Star’s products help students keep up with their school work and schedules, constantly coming up with innovative new products to meet student’s ever-changing needs. Best of all, Five Star® is Built Strong to Last Long™.
This year, Five Star® introduces two of their latest products the Expandable Back pack and 2″ Expandable Binder. Both products come in a variety of fun colors, and each provides a great amount of storage without being bulky or uncomfortable to carry.
FiveStar® 2” Zipper Binder + Expandable Pocket
Perfect for busy junior high, high school and college students, the Five Star® 2″ Zipper Binder with Expandable Pocket not only provides plenty of room for storage, but also encourages organization and efficiency. Made from durable, water resistant materials, this innovative 3 ring zipper binder offers plenty of storage for papers, supplies and even a tablet.
Inside, the patent-pending, hinged 5-pocket expanding file is perfect for organizing school work across multiple subjects and classes. The expandable files themselves are made of a durable plastic ensuring they will not rip, and tabs at the top of each section make identifying contents easy. On the front of the expandable file is a puncture resistant micro-mesh zipper pocket that provides plenty of room for pens, pencils, markers and ruler and more.
The three easy-open and close rings can hold up to 300 sheets of paper, and the expandable file allows for an additional 200 sheets! And a softly-lined, padded secure pocket provides the perfect spot for tablet storage!
On the outside back, an expandable zipper pocket provides even more storage ideal for carrying those extra notebooks and textbooks, and a patent-pending removable strap converts so you can easily carry it on your back or messenger style. The front and back ‘covers’ are reinforced for extra durability, too!
Best of all, despite its large storage capacity, the binder still easily fits inside a backpack. Color options available include Red, Blue, Purple, Dark Gray.
Five Star® Expandable Backpack
Constructed from durable, water resistant materials, the new Five Star® Expandable Backpack offers plenty of room for everything your student needs. This innovative backpack includes multiple storage pockets, a patented curved zipper allowing for side access while hanging in a locker, an organization pocket for small items, a bottle pocket and even a padded laptop sleeve.
The Expandable Backpack’s extra large main compartment can easily accommodate textbooks, notebooks and school supplies, and both the front pocket and main compartments expand to create seven inches of extra storage (3″ in the front pocket, 4″ in the main compartment) that every student can use. A separate padded compartment secures and protects laptops.
It has comfortable, ergonomic straps that evenly distribute weight, allowing heavy loads to be carried with ease. Best of all, it is designed to withstand the challenge of making it through the school year and comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
The new Five Star® Backpacks are available in Berry, Dark Gray, Cobalt.

I'm looking most forward to taking my teen out to shop for clothes. She loves to do that, and has since she got into high school. :)
