#CarriOneGiveOne - Carri Backpacks - Review & #Giveaway


It seems to me that just around the time spring break roles around, my kids ruin their backpacks. This time of year, its pretty much impossible to find school bags in the stores, so I started looking online. There are lots of company's to choose from, but when I found Carri Backpacks, I knew they were the right one for me. Not only do they make durable, stylish backpacks, they give back to children in need.


For every backpack they sell, Carri  provides a second backpack to an impoverished child through Childhelp, YMCA, and Communities In Schools. Carri gives the utmost attention to detail in the manufacturing process so that their customers and these children can carry a quality backpack, and these backpacks are definitely high quality.
Carri Backpacks are made from sturdy polyester, with tight seams that don't tear or fray. The straps are thick and padded at the shoulders, and it even has a shock absorber. Whether you're using this bag to carry books or go on a hiking trip, you will be able to carry your load in comfort. Inside, there is plenty of space for all your essentials. There are lots of pockets and pouches. It even comes with a removable neoprene sleeve for laptops. The color scheme is simple but classy, making it appropriate for both girls and boys of all ages.


If you'd like to learn more about  Carri Backpacks and all they offer, be sure to visit their website or follow their social media. This spring, if you have to get a new backpack, why not get one that is built to last and that will help a child in need?

  1. I like all the padding they put in it. The shoulder straps are padded to make it comfy, and there is a lot of padding to protect the ipads, tablets, etc. you carry.

  29. I learned how well-made this backpack is...definitely way above the norm. I doubt this one would need to be replaced after a year like most of my daycare kids' parents have to do. What a wonderful and worthwhile cause this is. I worked at a school as a teacher's aide at one time and I know that teachers who really care do spend their own money to buy supplies and will buy stuff for kids too like mittens and such.

  42. The details about this bag are interesting. It contains pextra protection for laptop and little smaller devices like tablet etc.. Also it contains special pockets for phone with protection for them to be safe and scratch free. I din't understand about the sleeve though. But it's very good that it's handles are strong and the material itself looks very good in the picture snapshots that are provided. Definitely it's a cool bag. Since my current bag is now torn. I'll wait for this giveaway and see if I can get this cool awesome bag..
