Waterproof Tech Backpacks

Carry Your Gadgets Comfortably with the ‘SLIM’ Backpack

— July 29, 2013 — Art & Design
The inspiring company ‘Cocoon’ has created the ‘SLIM’ backpack—the perfect carrier for all your gadget needs.

This backpack has compartments for both a 13-inch and 15-inch Macbook, an iPad, a smartphone and notebooks. It can be worn in any weather and season, as the material is water-resistant and the zippers are waterproof. One feature that people will really enjoy is the GRID-IT pocket. This pocket is designed to store cables and accessories vertically so you don’t have to rummage through your bag and continuously pull out the wrong cables. With so much to carry, the bag is designed with adjustable straps for a comfortable fit.

What’s more amazing about this bag is even with all the gadgets in one place, the bag is not bulky at all; it definitely lives up to its ‘SLIM’ name.

3. Comfortable Gadget Carrying - There will be a growing trend towards comfortable and ergonomic designs that can accommodate multiple gadgets without being bulky.
Industry Implications
