Head-Covering Rucksacks

This Hooded Backpack Keeps Your Noggin Protected on Your Trek to School

— January 29, 2014 — Unique
The GEAR3 BY SAEN Hooded Backpack will make you feel so grateful for that bonus thin piece of fabric when the weather decides to turn. You might not have a head covering connected to your jacket; you may not be sporting a jacket at all! This clever product combines the convenience of wearable storage with a handy little wind and rain shield.

Made with a combination of leather and canvas material, this strappy tote has the capacity of a laptop bag so that it's ideal for carrying your electronics and your work to class or to the office. The Hooded Backpack will keep everything -- including the hair on your head -- safe within its industrially fastened assembly. Carabiners, chains, bolts and screws guarantee a durable product.
