Fans of Netflix's hit series 'Stranger Things' can now literally wear and carry their sense of identification with the show and its assortment of characters thanks to the advent of a brand new backpack collection devised by JanSport as part of a collaboration with the Netflix show.
The JanSport x Stranger Things backpack collection manages to respect and promote the ideals of JanSport looks that were all the rage back in the 1980s, which is when the 'Stranger Things' show is set. What's more, fans of JanSport backpacks and 'Stranger Things' have as many as five different backpacks to choose from, all of which are inspired by the show and the area of Hawkins, Indiana, where it is set.
Ultimately, the introduction of the JanSport x Stranger Things backpack collection goes to show the importance of catering to the Gen Z demographic by offering functional products that pay tribute to their favorite pop culture phenomena.
