NEW YORK, NY, May 26, 2013

In 2005, AirBac was just an idea. After observing school kids dragging their heavy backpacks, an inventor went to work in his garage and created the lift back. The very first bag was a modified book bag with a blood pressure device stitched into the back and when pumped with air, began to lift upright. After undergoing many revisions and entering mass production, the AirBac came to be.

AirBac initially found success through parent/teacher associations, social events and a grass roots campaign. Chiropractors then saw the benefits of such a bag and began to sell it out of their catalogues. Now AirBac is no longer just a school bag; it holds the laptops for business execs, camera equipment for photographers, and supplies for hikers but most of all, it takes the weight off your shoulders and spine. You'll feel like you're carrying half the weight.

Innovation, creativity, and attention to comfort. This is the evolution of the backpack. This is AirBac.
