School is starting up for me in a couple weeks after this summer term finishes.
Anyway, I usually take a notebook, a water bottle, my wallet, a pen, a book (for personal reading) and a journal. To carry all that crap, I take a messenger bag and wear it across my body.
I haven’t experienced any problems with my shoulders bothering me, but I’m trying to correct some postural problems (pretty bad kyphosis and lordosis) and was wondering if using a backpack would be better.
Any suggestions that can give a good physiological reason as to why one would be better than another?
I’d think a backpack is better because it has even weight distribution over both of you shoulders as long as you wear it on both of your shoulders. But ask a chiropractor to be certain
Guys that jumped out of airplanes in WWII, back before all the kinks were worked out of the process, wore messenger bags/shoulder bags.
Yeah, I have a messenger bag (authentic WWII surplus picked up at a surplus store). When I was in college I wore a back pack AND the shoulder bag AND walked 5 miles home from campus with that stuff.
its whatever dudew cause i keep mad shit in my bag anyway. like if im headin somewhere for a while i got condoms, an extra shirt, maybe a wifebeater, gum, misc. papers, phone charger whatever else i may need.
this is honestly the first place i ever heard anyone say anything negative about a messenger bag…or even bring them up in general.

There’s a lot of people here that need to constantly prove that they would never, ever ever, even by accident, when drunk, stick it in a dude.
