Kipling Challenger II Backpack for Women & Teens - Lightweight Durable School & Travel Backpack with Spacious Compartments, Vibrant Pink - Perfect for College, Work, Gym & Everyday Use

I am a grandmother and I have some back and neck issues. I have found that carrying a back pack is much easier and less painful to do than carry a purse and/or briefcase. Before I retired, I carried a slightly larger one that would hold my laptop and files. When I retired I started looking for some that were smaller, but that I did not have to give up carrying 'essentials' (lol). A year or so ago, I found this one. I have loved it. The silver color makes it unnecessary to change because it is a good neutral color. It has lots of compartments/pockets. It can work with a MP3, there is a place for a phone and it is light weight and very durable. I bought this one because I wanted another one for when I finally wear out the one I am carrying. I get a lot of compliments on it and I am often asked where I got it. Everyone from young girls to seasoned citizens like myself have admired it. I carry it EVERYDAY and EVERYWHERE. Also, it is comfortable to carry, even or especially 'fully loaded', like mine usually is. I highly recommend it, especially if you have back issues and carry a large bag.
