Sweatshirt Backpack
The "Sweatshirt Backpack" was created as from a need to carry around less items as a student. Constantly stuffing my back with numerous items of clothing transitioning to and from class became a hassle. So how can you combine two into one? The arms were creating into straps and the body of the hoodie folded up and the pockets formed into carrying spaces. The hood then rested overtop to protect your books and school supplies from falling out or becoming ruined from debris. The "Sweatshirt Backpack," may not be the end all be all for convertible fashion, but it may be a step in the right direction for students looking to pack light.
