Default Help for finding special backpack
Hello dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

I do not have where to ask about this but if you can advise me I would appreciate it very much.

A cousin asked today for a backpack where it is written USA so he can take it to school. We are leaving soon and I do not know where to find this, and I do not have time to search for it, plus I have some more things to find. I have only seen shirts and hats here with such themes, but never backpacks. Please help if anyone of you living in US knows where I can get this, because he is just 12 years old and had a car accident this past March with the entire family and he went through so much with his health because of damaged internal organs and from the same problem his sister (14) departed.

Sorry because this is not about religion but I am desperate since this is so last minute.

Thank you so much.

Dear Nina,

Kyrie Eleison! I am so sorry to hear about this tragedy. I don't know how much time you have before you leave (for Greece?), but some companies (I believe LL Bean for instance) will monogram backpacks with whatever you want on it. I have never actually seen one like what you are asking for, so this may be the best route. Sorry I cannot be of more help. God bless you....Here is an online link to a nice backpack that can be monogrammed:

Hi Nina!

I can see in my mind, what you describe, but I haven't actually seen it anywhere, and we've been in a few stores recently, getting backpacks for the kids for school.

I've seen iron-on patches, and also sew on patches that'll can be attached to any plain backpack. Searching online is the fastest way, because you don't have to walk down every isle, and check every product...

Anyways, if you're running out of time to do all that, let me do it for you, PM me your address and I'll mail it to you when I find it. My wedding gift to you. =)

Love,
Mary.

Depends on what kind of backpack and what kind of logo you're looking for. ESPNShop has one with USA and the 5-ring Olympic logo:

I'll Google around a bit more and see if I can find anything else.

In Christ,
Michael

Here's a few more I found (prices vary wildly):

Gold medalist backpack at Speedo USA:

Tour Team USA Hockey Gear backpack:

Ballbag USA Basketball Jerseypack:
USABackpack4.jpg

Nike USA Track&Field Gymsack:

The one from my last post can also be found at the US Olympic Team online store.

Hope something among these fits the bill.

In Christ,
Michael

Thanks to everyone for their enthusiastic support, but I suggest that any further suggestions be made privately. This isn't Consumer Reports or Amazon.com.

Ah dear ones, thank you so much for all the information and help!!! And to Herman also for his prompt PM and help. I am so sorry I started this thread but it was urgent since we fly on Sunday and a thread insured a quick medium for casting the widest net. For lack of time I did not start PMing to all... Sorry! And thank you again so much, because the backpack is located by your information.

Just on a sidenote, I think this has everything to do with religion. Even if the boy had not been involved in such a tragedy.
