Backpacks are a great option for commuting, travel days and conventions.
I recently attended the GBTA convention. Instead of handing out a reusable bag at check-in, the GBTA handed out a really nice backpack. I have not used a backpack in years, but admittedly it was a nice way to lug everything around without hurting my back. This inspired last week’s Friday Finds, 5 Professional Backpacks for Women. This week, we featured 5 professional backpacks for men. What we realized while researching backpacks for men, is that there are a lot of options and we plan to revisit this subject in greater detail in the future!
