I decided to try the smart backpack and I’m amazed that not only does it hold all my stuff, but it also redistributes the weight so that the backpack doesn’t pull so hard on my shoulders.

It’s exactly what I was looking for in an everyday backpack. I wanted to make a change to my order but I did not get a reply until after my order was shipped.
