Access adventure

This article is sponsored by Paxis

Whether planning a travel adventure, a business trip, or simply exploring the great outdoors, you have to decide what essentials get added to your backpack. You also have to decide what order to pack them in to allow for the fastest access to your most important items.

The backpack’s origins began in the 1920s when outdoorsman Lloyd Nelson was inspired by packs used by the indigenous people of Alaska. He designed and patented “Trapper Nelson’s Indian Pack Board”, which went on to become the first-ever mass-produced external frame backpack. Fast forward to today and the backpack market is a $17.5 billion industry…with an overwhelming number of backpack choices.

Yet in the last 100 years, and of the hundreds of thousands of backpacks sold, one design challenge has never been solved: quicker access to essentials. From being with the person digging through a backpack for a passport, or personally making everyone on the trail stop while digging out your sunglasses, you know what we’re talking about.

Fast Relief Thanks to Paxis

The Paxis Twin Lakes backpack has finally provided an innovative solution for uninterrupted momentum and the highest level of functionality, matched with weather-resistant and ergonomic comfort.
