Okay, this could seem like a strange post in the Health and Fitness Forum. I am going to start wearing a weighted backpack while walking.
I don't own a backpack. Do you carry a backpack? Have any favorite brands? I was thinking of buying a Jansport - something with a webbed/padded straps.

Thanks girls - I will look into those brands. It doesn't need to be cute or like a purse - I will be adding weight (probably kitty litter - lol) and walking with it on the treadmill for therapeutic reasons.

One thing I can say - LL Bean has top rated backpacks.

I liked this one - padded straps, back air flow and a waist strap - at some point I will be jogging with this thing on and don't want to knock myself out

I bought a North Face Surge II backpack for my son. I like the separate compartment for his laptop.
