If you have an iPod and frequently trek around with a bunch of crap in a backpack, you’re in luck: Nike realized that by partnering with Apple and offering products that integrate with the iPod is a good move. So they’ve released the Nike C.O.R.E. Audio iPod Backpack. For $85, you get a backpack that looks like it’s straight out of a 1991 episode of MTV’s The Real World.

But that’s not all! It comes equipped with a cable to hook up the iPod so you can control your music without having to take off the backpack. The backpack also has a padded slot for carrying a laptop and a dedicated iPod storage pocket. If you really want one, they’re available now in stores and online, but $85 can get you a much better backpack or at least something that looks a bit more stylish.
