Killer Transforming Knapsacks

The Mission Workshop 'Arkiv' Backpack is Customizable

— May 28, 2012 — Lifestyle
The Mission Workshop 'Arkiv' backpack lets you slip, slide and rearrange individually selected compartments to provide for optimal organization.

While most backpacks come with various pockets and compartments to utilize the space inside the sack effectively, they do not offer the buyer the ability to choose the way those pockets are designed or how many there are.

This tote, however, allows you to pick out personalized accessories like laptop-specific pouches and tool-holding pockets to suit your individual cargo needs. Each add-on attaches to the basic knapsack using steel hardware and can be fastened in various configurations thanks to the steel bars on the outside.

While it may not be the cheapest option on the market, with a base cost of $200 US, it does make for an extremely versatile storage solution.
