The Healthy Back Bag^® is the world’s first "backbag". Designed with the help of a doctor and chiropractor, the Healthy Back Bag^®’s patented teardrop design efficiently distributes weight across key touchpoints through the length of the whole bag. This differs from standard shoulder bags which pull from one point on the shoulder. The result is to vastly reduce stress to the back, shoulder and neck.

 

Healthy Back Bag^® is a product of Ameribag, a company based in USA.

Q: Why are the bags healthy?

A: Healthy Back Bags^® were developed in collaboration with a doctor and a chiropractor to address weight stress issues in a one-strap bag. The teardrop shape distributes weight ergonomically throughout the length of the bag, rather than pulling from one point on the shoulder. The bag doesn’t pull away from the body, it contours to your back, whether you wear it on one shoulder (either shoulder) or cross-body.

 

There are no rigid elements in the Healthy Back Bag’s construction, so it moulds to any shape back. The more places a bag touches your body when you wear it, the lighter it feels - it becomes part of you - and the less it adversely affects your posture.

 

All bags have a non-slip strap lining so it can be worn on one shoulder without slipping off or pulling away from the body, so the wearer does not need to make any corresponding adjustments (like unconsciously hunching the shoulder) to keep the bag in place. When the bag is worn across the back, it frees the arms allowing the wearer to walk in a correct bio-mechanic fashion.

 

Q: Why is it better than a rucksack?
A: A Healthy Back Bag is a one-strap alternative to a rucksack. We fully endorse the fact that a two-strap bag (assuming it is fitted correctly and carried properly!) is the best way to carry weight around, however there is a great temptation to use only one strap, which is the worst thing you can do. Many people find rucksacks just plain ugly, uncomfortable and inconvenient, are worried about security, or can’t carry them for health reasons, and this is where a Healthy Back Bag comes into its own.

 

Q: What is the inside like?
A: Designed to keep you organised. All the Classic ranges have identical pocket configurations, 4 on the outside, and 5 or 6 on the inside, plus a keyhook and a D ring in the top. No two pockets are the same, so if you get used to keeping items in a certain place you can easily locate them without having to look. The interior pockets are angled for easy access while wearing the bag, and all bags have a silver lining for stress-free rummaging!

 

Q: What about security?
A: The bags feature a full-length double zip, which is always against your back, however you wear the bag. We recommend that the main zipper pulls are positioned at the bottom of the bag during wear. Whether on the shoulder or across your back you can pull the bag round to access it without taking it off, and the double zip means you only have to open it at the exact spot required to get at what you need, so the contents are less vulnerable.
