Default Where to look for Obusforme backpacks?
Hello,

I've searched the boards and I can't find an answer as to where to look for Obusforme bags. I've checked the bay, staples, and grand & toy with no luck.

I would appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure Shoppers Drug Mart sold them last year, maybe some time this week I can confirm that for you about this year.

Thing is, with the Obusform Backpacks, they're quite heavy because they have so much support in the right areas, so before you head out and buy one, try a few different bags from different companies on ... I thought I'd get one as well but changed my mind after feeling how heavy it was.

Oh really? I was not aware of that. Going by some reviews, they seem to be pretty ergonomical. I'll definately try them first and other brands.

Thanks for the heads up.

I believe Home Outfitters has a sale on them?

Search obusforme in hot deals and you should find them. They're well designed as for any other area such as quality or durability I wouldn't know.

Good luck.

Yup, Shoppers has them. Variety of "male/female" colours, saw them around $29.99 (possibly more depending on the bag I'm guessing) ...

Something Shoppers specific, just let me know.
