Those heading out on a lengthy trip that requires a backpack will appreciate the design of the 'Vertepac' ergonomic backpack as being a supportive piece of luggage that will help alleviate strain.
Backpacking backpacks are notoriously oversized and can cause injury if worn improperly or for too long. The 'Vertepac' looks to end this using a revolutionary frame design that mimics the mechanics of the body and the human spine.
The frame that the 'Vertepac' uses affixes onto a wearers body and stays in place the whole time. The backpack removes from this frame to make sure users always have access to their gear when they need it.
Coming in several size and style options, the 'Vertepac' ergonomic backpacks are funding now on Kickstarter.
