2 awesome Buddy bag sets
Does such a bag really exist? Let’s face it: you’ve probably doled out good money for a variety of supposedly ‘ergonomic’ backpacks that claim to protect your child’s spine and posture, but somehow, Junior still looks like he is carrying a heavier load than he should be – and judging from his bent back – he is.
So you keep a constant lookout for a better bag (that usually comes at a not-so-much-better price tag). Then you think: why not get some bang for my buck and buy the largest-sized bag available? He’ll grow into it anyway, right? Wrong.
Sizing your child up
What many parents overlook is the fact that ergonomic bags have to be of an appropriate size for the child. When the child carries a too-big bag, the overall load he bears increases, resulting in unnecessary stress to his core muscles, poor gait and bad posture.
Thankfully, we have the very awesome Buddy ‘Mighty Pack’, that -believe it or not – grows with your child! The Buddy ‘Mighty Pack’ is fitted with a unique ‘A-frame’ ergonomic back system that is fully adjustable, which means it allows your child a custom fit according to his growth. Every component of the bag is designed for the purpose of your child obtaining optimum comfort. Other key features of the Buddy ‘Mighty Pack’ include:
- A centralized, removable water bottle pouch
- A 3+1 Load Bearing Zone – the bag is divided into three ‘zones’ that specify where the heaviest and lightest items should be placed
- A +1 Zoom Expansion Zone – an expansion feature unraveled with a mere unzip
- 25 litres of capacity
- An A5-size time table pocket
- Safety features like the ‘Whistle in a buckle’ and reflective strips
- An integrated rain jacket
- A hidden pocket
