The idea is a bag that can be worn over the shoulder for smaller capacity loads that converts to a traditional pack via a hidden pocket which reveals another half to the pack. When fully opened the bag provides double the storage space and twice the coolness.

Person Peoples takes a look back.
We talked to our pop over the weekend and he told us about the good old days. Necessity sure is the mother of all invention.

A belt when you need it.
A bag when you want it.
And a cheatsheet if your buddy got you the answers.

My design was made for the purpose of being as simply subtle as possible. For example, my current bag has a loud velcro connection…so lets say its in the middle of class and I have to get something out, BRRIIIPPP goes the velcro and instantly I am now the center of (unwanted) attention. This bag was made with the purpose of keeping sounds to a minimum with a magnet seal outer pouch and a zippered inner pouch…no clicks or brips, just a quiet zip. The colors can be customized online so that the consumer can create the perfect bag.

A lunchbag can turn out pretty messy when placed on top of books, papers and laptop. The idea is to have a schoolbag and a lunchbag in two different units. The lunchbag is attached at the bottom of the schoolbag, leaving all your paperwork safe from stainning fluids. Your lunchbag is removable, so it is more convenient when going for lunch and also makes it easier to wash.

heres my entry. pretty simple, this is a tall and narrow bag meant to hang on the side of a school locker. The idea is that the bag would stay on the side of the locker to allow more room for winter coats/etc. All of the access to the bag would be from one side. The top opening is angled towards the student. The bottom has a lower compartment which runs the depth of the bag. I was thinking it would be great to use a rough and tough used burlap material from a potato/coffee bean sack.

Digital is the mainstream in school and work. Assignments, communcation, and education is largely done through the use of computers and internet. This rugged carrier is for those who constantly use their laptop on the go- not just in a stationary setting. Although it can hold traditional work/school materials, it’s main feature is it’s laptop integration system. By placing your laptop into the hard and durable folding receptical, it is protected and easily accesible on a moments notice- even when wearing the backpack itself!

Great for public transportation users- on the sidewalk, at the stop, or on the bus. Wear it on the front of your chest, connect the straps behind your back for support, and fold down the receptical, transforming it into a laptop table. No need to set down your backpack to pull out your laptop, then struggle to shove it back into the bag with your when the bus arrives or you get to class.

When you do get to class, the laptop platform keeps the bottom of the laptop cool. No need to remove the computer! Take notes on your laptop and save paper!

That’s my school bag design. You have to costumize this bag with stencils, fabric sprays, pens and all your creativity!!!
And is very easy and quick to organize and clean it up… That’s all folks!!
PS: the stencils arts is from www.dafont.com and www.brusheezy.com

Light duty tech. bag for those casual days…

This is my first go at the 1 hour challenge. Enjoy!

Gives user option to sit (rest) while they wait.

This was a fun exercise, I will definitly be doing more.

Most Back pack designs are over designed so lets take the Apple approach on things.

Velcrometre is a modular bag system that allows you to carry only what you need, when you need it, and how you need to carry it. It consists of a bunch of components of different capacities and functions that have industrial strength velcro on most of their surface. The user fills the components with what they need, and then assembles a bag out of only the components they need.

For the record, I do NOT have stock in velcro. :sunglasses:

A pack for quick sketch sessions!

Here’s mine. . .

Artist inspired and environmentally conscious. The Mondrian-esque color break-up is the result of using small, otherwise wasted scraps sewn together. Like other Timbuk2 products, this bag can be custom ordered in up to 4 colors, but the pattern is determined by the size/shape of scraps on hand.

The exo-skeleton is made from recycled aluminum and incorporates an external pen/marker holster so that the most popular tools are instantly accessible for those impromptu sketch sessions.

The bag has retracting feet that allow it to stand on it’s own and provide easy access to drawing pads and markers/pens. There are retracting hooks on the bottom to securely carry an artist’s tube.

First time entering one of these, had a good time. Hope y’all enjoy now.

It fits size 13 shoes and a change of clothes! It fits 30 beers! It shows off your bomb-ass taste in cheap beer! (yes, while some may be confused, 30-racks are sold in the southeast United States). It fits ramen, caffeine, cds, books, a macbook, whatever you need. With it’s unique space-saving integrated handle design, chicks will totally dig it. Know what I’m sayin, bro?

As longs as dudes are going out and getting one of these guys a week, why not recycle with some duct tape, cardboard, and a box-opener.

P.S. I considered a shoulder-strap as an afterthought. I just wanted to avoid the schweaty back induced by traditional backpacks.

Looks like a sketch most could do in 5 min. When it took me 40 :frowning: . But this was inspired by my own experiences of having to carry a backpack weighing anywhere from 5-30lbs of books, etc approximately 15-30 minutes walking distance (in middle school, this was). Straps are of a thicker, stronger material than usual (to avoid broken straps). It has an extendable pouch for more books and supplies (should the teachers be so cruel). And padding on the shoulder sections of the straps, to bear all that weight. Sorry it’s not colored. I suppose it just comes in whatever color you want. (1st post, btw)

“shell”

bag pack + messanger bag!
