The Aro Pack by Mighty Mac Integrates the Backpack onto the Jacket

It's almost back-to-school and that can only mean one thing: lugging around the dreaded laptop during the winter months. However, the Aro Pack by Mighty Mac has created a hybrid parka that solves the laptop problem.

This solid beige parka is not only incredibly warm, but it comes with a matching backpack piece that's integrated onto the jacket itself. Of course, it also has the ability to be removed. Be sure to check out the gallery for a closer look at this clever design.
