Hey All!
Have you heard? Trapper Keeper is back! Can you believe it? I nearly jumped for joy when I heard this nostalgic product I loved so much as a kid was making a come back. I still have my old Unicorn Trapper Keeper that I used in Middle School. They were introduced in 1978 and were a mainstay of the 80’s.
I’m sure you probably remember having a horse or beach print Trapper Keeper when you were a child. Seeing these old school Trappers brings me back to my childhood.
It’s great that I can now introduce these amazing products to my family today. They are back and better than ever in a cohesive platform that works together as a system of tools that quickly & easily helps students get and stay organized. Who doesn’t want their kids to be more organized?
They now have the Snapper Trapper technology which are secure closures made of a durable plastic strip included on Trapper Keeper products that helps students quickly “snap” their supplies in and out of their binders, enabling quick and easy stow-and-go for busy students.
You can now not only get a Trapper Keeper Binder, you can also get Folders, Notebooks, Student Planners, and Dividers all with the Snapper Trapper feature.
“The Trapper Keeper is an icon and was a cultural touch point to many of today’s parents who grew up in the ’80s,” said Jessica Hodges, director of school marketing for ACCO Brands. “With the reintroduction of the Trapper Keeper this school year, we wanted to stay true to the integrity and history of the brand, but elevate the design to make it even easier for today’s students to get and stay organized.”
Leaving the acid wash in the ’80s, the new Trapper Keeper line offers students a subtle graphic design in four on-trend colors – blue, purple, red and green.
