A pack system designed to both better distribute weight front and back and transfer some load support to the hips in order to reduce the burden on the back and shoulders. The pack system comprises a back member and a front member releasibly interconnected by shoulder straps and buckles. Each of the back and front members is a large pack having at least one large compartment capable of receiving a significantly large and heavy load such as big text books or the like. The back member is provided with a waist belt terminating in buckles that can be interconnected on the abdominal area of the user so that at least a significant portion of the back member load is supported at the hips to help reduce the burden on the back and shoulders. The back member also has a central lightweight, rigid frame on the inside surface and attached to the waist belt. A number of smaller pockets are also provided for storing smaller objects such as cell phones, calculators, pens, pencils, pads and paper. Extra straps and connectors are provided so that each of the front and back members may be selectively used without the other to provide the system with maximum versatility by reconnecting the shoulder straps and buckles to the extra straps and connectors. |
