Back in January at the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Case Logic, one of the best-known attaché, bag, and case brands in the U.S., introduced a wider portfolio of new product for 2016. All of these products were on full display in their booth. So much so that we’ve had to segment this post to their new back to school backpacks for boys, girls, teens, and young adults. It’s not to say that these Case Logic laptop backpacks shouldn’t be used by post college-aged adults. On the contrary. We’re saying that based on their design, features, and color schemes, that these cool backpacks are better suited to those in their teens and early 20’s. A few days back, we put out a post dedicated to laptop backpacks for urban professionals and commuters.
Case Logic Back To School Backpacks for 2016 & 2017
The key takeaway for their 2016 product line was their targeting of “the next generation of connected students and professionals.” Furthermore, the folks at Case Logic went on to state that “Today’s mobile users want their devices protected, but they also want their bags and cases to look great and act as an expression of their personality.”
Introducing the new Case Logic Larimer bag collection, and the updated Berkeley II, Ibira, and Jaunt Backpack lines for 2016.
For all you Instagram users out there. From now until August 21st, the folks at Case Logic are running an amazing weekly contest.
