I was given a Ju-Ju-Be backpack to use in facilitating my review. All opinions are 100% mine and mine alone.
Ju-Je-Be has many new Fall arrivals for 2013. After browsing through their site, I decided that the Platinum petals Be Right Back backpack would be perfect for me and my life on the go. As an active mom of two boys, and someone who frequents the gym five days a week, a backpack is a must in my life.
Check out their video to learn more about this bag.
This bag is the BEST backpack that I have ever owned! It has SO many pockets and zippers and is very sturdy with quality zippers which is a huge plus when you are in a hurry. How many times have you gotten your zippers hung on your bag and you didn’t have the time to stand there and fight the zippers on your bag because your family was continuing on without you? For example, at theme parks, everyone wants you to carry their things, but no one wants to wait for you to place everything in your bag before moving along to the next ride / attraction. Need help packing the perfect backpack, check out my backpack tips.
I didn’t have this bag very long before I had the perfect opportunity to test it out. My son and I have been doing a lot of bike riding after school and today Bobby decided that we should ride our bikes to the grocery. We just needed a few items, so I packed water bottles for both of us which fit perfectly in the two backpack side pockets, grabbed my keys, wallet and cell phone and we were off. The outside bottle pockets come with Thinsulate by 3M, which keeps beverages warm or cool.
Check out the groceries that fit inside this bag. It was roomier than I had expected. It easily carried a box of ice cream sandwiches, lettuce, carrots, ranch dressing, apples and a large box of protein bars. The backpack fit great and rode perfectly on my shoulders as we were on the way home with our groceries.
Since our trip to the grocery, I have turned this backpack into my new fitness bag. Everyday I carry bottled water, a Yoga towel, a hand towel, weight lifting gloves, my keys, cell phone and wallet. There are so many zippers and pockets, that everything can be arranged so I can quickly find it when it is time to leave the gym. This bag also has DuPont Teflon fabric protector which protects against stains. It is also protected with Agion Antimicrobial which stops odor, prevents bacterial and fungal growth and is environmentally friendly. This is exactly what I am looking for in a fitness bag. Just think of all those sweaty towels and workout shoes that will be stored in there on a daily basis. Ju-Ju-Be saw to it, that this bag would be prepared for just about anything that comes its’ way. This would also make a great diaper bag. It even came with a matching memory foam changing pad, metal hardware and quiet magnets instead of the loud velcro that usually wears out over time. Another great feature is the light colored lining used inside this bag. It makes it a lot easier to track down your small belongings when the lining isn’t so dark. You can also wash this bag in the washing machine, then hang it up to air dry.
