Sporty Footwear Backpacks

The HEX Sneaker Knapsack Features a Shoe Compartment For Extra Kicks

— September 7, 2016 — Fashion
For consumers that often carry around extra pairs of footwear with them, the HEX Sneaker Backpack is a stylish way to do so with an embedded shoe compartment located at the base of the tote. The backpack is sleek and stylish with a leather finish that provides a dapper piece of luggage to use on a daily basis.

Since shoes can often harbor unwanted ordors, having a bag that keeps sneakers separate from personal items ensures the shoes aren't also squished. The HEX Sneaker Backpack includes a hardshell zipper compartment at the bottom of the bag that fits even the bulkiest pair of high-top shoes. The bag also offers pockets for laptops and accessories with reinforced padding.
