This X-Ray Backpack Design Makes School Less Scary

— August 13, 2013 — Life-Stages
This X-Ray Bones Backpack design will carry you through back-to-school woes all the way to Halloween. This Sprayground skeletal print looks like an x-ray print out of the ribcage and torso area. The bones show up in an illuminative blue shade on a black background. The bones glow in the dark as well.

This backpack design is ideal for students who love science and are looking for a rucksack that will set them apart from their peers. Pre-med and health science students will also enjoy this biological-inspired pattern. The glow-in-the-dark feature will double as a safety feature as well because it makes the wearer more visible. This works well for students getting home after dark, after staying late to work on science projects and lab reports.
Trend Themes
1. Science-inspired Backpacks - As students become more interested in STEM subjects, designing backpacks with science-inspired patterns presents a significant disruptive innovation opportunity for the fashion industry.
2. Glow-in-the-dark Products - The addition of glow-in-the-dark features in fashion accessories, like backpacks, presents a unique opportunity for disruptors in the safety and fashion industries alike.
3. Specialty Interest Merchandise - Harnessing specialty interests, like science, can lead to significant opportunities for disruptive innovation for companies that create merchandise in niche markets.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - By diversifying their designs, the fashion industry can capitalize on disruptive opportunities in sectors like science and education.
2. Safety - It's important to recognize that the addition of glow-in-the-dark features to fashion accessories possesses the potential to disrupt industries concerned with safety.
3. Education and Science - Creating products that tap into the interests of science and health students presents a significant disruptive innovation opportunity for the education and science sectors.
