2019 got to begin with a bang – in terms of entertainment, politics, culture or fashion. Every element of the society is contributing its best to make 2019 bang on, right from the beginning onwards. So how can weird fashion trends lag behind? To contribute their share in the proceedings, a bizarre fashion trend has hit the market already. A Japanese store, Plywood is selling giant, human-sized backpacks.
The huge over-sized backpack that costs $US234 (~16,380INR) is 180 liters and 100cm tall. The backpacks are currently available in three colors sand beige, olive drag and black.
Having a look at the giant backpacks will leave you astonished and creeped out at the same time. While on one hand, mini backpacks that took the fashion runways by rage last year, actually made quite a sense to us, thanks to their pretty and stylish looks. But these bizarre man-mountain backpacks make us wonder if we got to carry it on our backs or drag it across the ground!
The company, on contrary, describes it as a bag fit for camping through the mountains and forests. They also claim that the shoulder straps of the bag are designed in such a way that they would reduce the stress on the shoulders, making it easy to move and transport.
To add to your already overdone dose of WTF for today, let us also tell you that the bag without any luggage weighs 1.6 kgs. Now can you imagine trekking a hill with a stuffed bag like this? And if you are wondering why would anyone invest their well-earned money on such a bizarre thing. Let us give you the last shocker for the day – the bags are already sold out in Japan!
Would you like to buy one? If it is a yes, do not forget to tell us the reason as well because we couldn’t literally find any! (Unless you’re a child kidnapper)
