Abstract

An integral backpack/upper body garment comprises a garment to which a split backpack is attached or attachable to the back panel of an upper body garment. A front backpack assembly including front assembly with shoulder straps is attached/attachable to the front face of the back panel, and a rear backpack assembly including storage compartments is attached/attachable to the rear face of the back panel. A circumferential garment compartment has two walls, one attached to the front assembly and one attached to the rear assembly. The jacket may be rolled up or folded into the garment compartment and the two walls joined by a closure to protectively enclose the garment therein when it is not worn. The backpack may be worn with or without the integral jacket, and the jacket may be worn with or without the backpack.
