Clinically proven to reduce backpack stress.
Recommended by the Congress of Chiropractic State Associations (COCSA), our AirPacks SystemŽ Packs provide revolutionary comfort and support by reducing stress on the body by 80% and lightening the effective load by 50%. What's behind these dramatic figures? A patented, ergonomic air transfer system that uses inflatable cushions in the lumbar area and shoulder straps to redistribute weight from the shoulders to the hips and lower back, promoting an upright standing position and healthier posture, enhancing the body's natural ability to properly carry weight.
Physicians recommend that students carry no more than 15% of their body weight, so these university-tested, clinically proven backpacks are proportionally sized for students of all ages, with additionally adjustable shoulder straps that automatically adjust side-to-side to help maintain correct ergonomic support even when using just one strap. Which size is right for you or your student depends on a combination of commonsense factors: a simple measurement (from the top of the shoulder to the natural waist), knowledge of the average student size at various school levels, plus the needed content capacity.
All sizes of AirPacks Back Packs are made from longwearing polyester, and have three convenient zipper compartments for books, pens, and other necessities (even a handy key keeper) and two mesh pockets for bottles. The Medium and Large sizes also accommodate our Laptop Sleeve.
