From Children bringing home their ever increasing homework load (we're sorry to say that it increases with each grade. Not something for you scholars to look forward to) to new mothers carrying around Junior and all of the accessories that go with. The human race has added to their many daily necessities. Day planners, cell phones, PDA's, laptops, the extra "oops" tie or shirt, umbrellas, various child paraphernalia, etc. cannot fit into your pockets or purses along with the other stuff already there. And let's face it, those purses can get very heavy and sitting on that wallet fat with cash and other papers like women's phone numbers for those popular singles is not healthy for your back. With backpacks of various sizes, companies like JanSport, Camelbak, The North Face and Dakine are doing their parts to decrease the pain and increase health. RockyMountainTrail.com offers school book bags with comfort straps, hydration packs for hands free drinking, hiking packs with better weight distribution, laptop bags with pockets for extra carrying capacity and most backpacks now have a convenient cell phone, PDA or mp3 player pocket. The backpack has evolved from the “book-strap” of the one room prairie school days to the extremely versatile urban catch all. Why continue to suffer? There are plenty of cool, urban and fun packs just waiting for the click of the mouse!
