The backpack chair is a portable folding chair you can take it to the streets, squares and parks and comfortably enjoy your day out. You can fix it to lighting posts, trees and railings by securing it with a cargo lashing or used directly on the floor. It's light and can be carried as a backpack or purse depending on the way you tie its strings. You may build it in two sizes: small for children and large for adults.
