STATE Bags aren't just backpacks - they're GiveBackPacks. This Brooklyn-based company creates cool, classic bags; all with a powerful social mission at its core. For each bag sold, STATE hand-delivers one to an American child in need. The Ashton bag's ingenious design allows you to carry as both a single strap backpack and a tote. To convert from backpack to tote, simply snap strap into place and lower zippers. For each Ashton sold, STATE will hand-deliver either a Garfield or Durham bag to an American child in need.
