Football Backpack Turns Son Into A Star By dade on Nov 06, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

We got Matthew a new backpack for school. He had inherited his older brother's and wanted his own. The old one wouldn't zip up all the way and was getting ragged around the edges.

Matt wanted Athletech Boy's Detachable Lunch Football Backpack, just like the football players all wear to practice. Well, if this is what he wants, I'm good with it. I thought, for sure, he would have gone with the Spiderman backpack.

We get home and Matt wants to take a walk around the block wearing this thing. He wants his mom to make him a lunch, just like it was a school day. I told him, I would drive him up to school, drop him off at the door, then he could walk home wearing his new backpack. I always carry it too far.

The backpack by Athletech, is cute. The lunch box looks like a football, it has mesh, inside pockets, made of a cleanable, polyester blend and looks, new. My son likes it, so it works for me.
