Review: Reversible Healthy Back Bag From The Healthy Back Bag Company (Competition Ended)

DUE TO MOVING TO NEW HOST some older posts lost their images apologies on this one
 
2013 Competition To Win A Healthy Back Bag
 
A short while ago I was introduced to The Healthy Back Bag. At the time I did not believe a bag could make such a difference to my posture, body and comfort when carrying a bag, but I was pleasantly pleased when I received a spring/summer bag to review (see Healthy Back Bag Review HERE for earlier review and in depth explanation of how well the bag works). 
 
I carried this bag throughout the summer. It’s the most comfortable bag I own, and I own a lot of bags. Carrying The Healthy Back Bag both ‘hands-free’ and on one shoulder was so much more comfortable than my usual across body or normal handbag. As someone with back issues and rounded shoulders from earlier years of not walking straight, I really need a bag that helps me stay in physical balance. The Healthy Back Bag does just that, keeps my posture in balance and also encourages me to carry lighter loads (I have been known to carry the kitchen sink when out). 
 
As Winter is drawing in ‘The Healthy Back Bag Company’ gave me the opportunity to review a beautiful denim bag, and also offered a wonderful reversible bag for 1 lucky winner this season, so you may get to experience what I am talking about for yourself if you win. They also have a great new range for sale that matches perfectly with the changing seasons and fashion styles. 
 

Flocked Denim (Size Small) Current Price £65.00 

 
Flocked Denim Heathy Back Bag

Like all their bags, this bag sits perfectly on the shoulder and across the body, and the cooler denim colour works perfectly with winter fashion. With a flocked denim fabric it is soft to touch and feels a really strong and durable bag. I love the two-tone design effect and how stylish it looks both dressed up and dressed down when going out. This feels perfect for someone who wants to look smart casual and/or a student going from campus to campus.

 
Features:

-Soft fabric,durable & strong

-Showerproof

-Signature silver lining 

-Key hook
-4 exterior and 5 interior pockets plus 2 pen slots

-Adjustable non-slip shoulder strap

-D ring for Baglett or other accessories

-Full length double zip opening main compartment for easy access

-Versatile. Can be worn 4 ways cross-body or on shoulderI found wearing it with a smart jacket looks fantastic but it was also just as wearable with my blue waterproof jacket for those more wintry days. What I love about these bags is the range of internal pockets as stated in my earlier review, and the outer pocket is brilliant for my umbrella or water bottle. Friends have commented on how comfortable The Health Back Bag looks when I’m wearing it and although some say it looks too small, I often amaze them with how much I actually get into the small size Healthy Back Bag.

 
 
Taking the more casual look, this bag is a lovely colour and texture.

NEW Reversibles Range

 

I am all for multi-tasking bags. I am a finicky person when it comes to colours and I was saying to someone the other day I could never get a tattoo as I change my mind too often about colours and designs. So this new range would be ideal for me. Two bags in one!

The new reversible range comes in a selection of colours from bright pewter/moss combination to more neutral henna/pearl and carbon/flint. These are fully unisex in colour and style, and are perfect gifts for someone looking for something different, practical and comfortable to wear going through the autumn into winter. With the same features as the other Healthy Back Bags but with the added bonus of reversible engineering.

 
A good selection of colours for male or female.
I like that these are reversible, 2 bags in 1

The Health Back Bag says about the new reversible range:

A feat of engineering, these Reversible Bags actually turn perfectly inside-out making two bags in one with coordinating colours inside and out. Made from 100% polyester, these hardwearing bags come in 3 colourways and are perfect for days out and about, autumn bike rides and winter walks.

-Can be worn inside out

    I'd get a I love my life purple. Because I love purple so much. I really like the idea of these bags I have an Erbspalsy on my left shoulder, which means it juts out and bags don't lie right on it and I suffer pain with normal rucksacks. Maybe Santa will bring me one for Christmas

    Textured Nylon Plum XS. I dislike handbags because I don't like lugging them around so this is perfect, I can carry things around in comfort and ease. Also it being waterproof means I don't have to worry about the contents getting wet in the rain. It's also in purple….my fave colour!

    "I Love My Life Deep Purple" because Purple is a magical colour, and the affirmation embroidered into it would be such a positive thing to carry around with me.

  38. December 17, 2013 / 12:09 pm
