Kemies Introduces Bags with Skins That Can Be Easily Changed

— July 4, 2017 — Art & Design
Kemies is a backpack company based out of Toronto, Canada, that sets itself apart by creating highly customizable 'Bags with Skins.'

Alongside selling a base bag design that is suitable for carrying around a 15" laptop, Kemies also sells individual 'Skins' that can be secured to a bag with a two-way zipper. As there are a number of Skins available with different prints and features such as pockets, it is easy to swap out one Skin for another as needed. With these reinvented backpacks, users are able to make the most of a simple base design and build upon it with interchangeable Skins to suit their desire for self-expression or additional storage.

Some of the Collections from Kemies include sets of Skins with inspirational quotes, as well as Animals, Art and Cities.
