Outdoor Modular Backpacks

The 'Paxis Pack' Modular Gear Backpack Offers Access to Essential Items

— May 10, 2016 — Fashion
Knapsacks are great for keeping essentials in place, but can often restrict you from accessing gear, so the 'Paxis Pack' modular gear backpack is designed to change this.

Rather than force wearers to take off their pack every time they want to get something, the 'Paxis Pack' features an ARC swing arm that will swing a portion to your waist. This makes gaining access to essential gear such as a camera or other equipment more streamlined and efficient.

The 'Paxis Pack' modular gear backpack features a NYLAR ballistic fabric exterior that will help to thwart inclement weather and keep gear safely stowed within. The back portion is designed with ergonomic padding and enhanced support and venting for maximum comfort all day long.
Trend Themes
1. Modular Gear Backpacks - Developing modular gear backpacks that provide easy access to essential items while on the move.
2. ARC Swing Arm Technology - Incorporating ARC swing arm technology into backpack designs to allow users to swing a portion of the backpack to their waist for quick and convenient access.
3. Weather-resistant Materials - Using weather-resistant materials, such as NYLAR ballistic fabric, to protect gear from inclement weather during outdoor activities.
Industry Implications
1. Outdoor Gear and Equipment - The outdoor gear and equipment industry can explore opportunities to create innovative backpack designs that cater to outdoor enthusiasts' needs for accessibility and convenience.
2. Photography and Videography - The photography and videography industry can benefit from backpacks with ARC swing arm technology that allow quick access to cameras and equipment for capturing fast-paced moments.
3. Textile and Material Manufacturing - The textile and material manufacturing industry can focus on developing advanced weather-resistant materials with enhanced durability and protective properties for backpacks and other outdoor gear.
