<p>A theft deterrent backpack including at least two panels forming a main compartiment. The at least two panels include a back panel (110) and a second panel, other than the back panel. The backpack also includes a releasable securing device (130) for accessing the main compartment; the releasable securing device, for example, a zipper, having a beginning end and a terminating end. Preferably, the terminating end of the releasable securing device is disposed on the back panel and the beginning end is disposed on the second panel such as the front panel (105), side panel (120) or bottom panel (115). When the backpack is worn, positioning of the releasable securing device in such a configuration deters access to the terminating end of the releasable securing device end hence access to the main compartment. Since the releasable securing device extends three-dimensionally along at least two panels such as the front and back panels, it provides a relatively large opening or mouth through which the main compartment may be accessed limited only by the dimension or capacity of the main compartment itself.</p> |
