Nike is not alone in capitalizing on the student-as-mule trend (46% of schoolkids get backaches from their packs). JanSport offers the Pulse, which comes with a waist belt and is padded with its own cushy stuff, called Gelastic. And RakGear by Targus has internal shelving that keeps contents--from books to yesterday's lunch--from settling to the bottom. Kids still need to keep loads to no more than 15% of body weight and wear both straps. The load facing the Nike brand? Convincing kids that a back-saving pack isn't geeky. --By Janice M. Horowitz
