Backpack without straps danging from the bottom?
[Title should say dangling, not danging.]
Can anybody recommend a backpack that does not have straps dangling off the bottom like so:
I found one bag specifically advertised to have a "strap management system" -
- but this particular bag is $100 and not all that durable, according to some reviews. Any other options?

i cut mine (measure once, cut twice and no going back...), then use a lighter to clean up the ends. i do this for my kids backpacks as well, since those always hang and drag. having said that, i haven't done that on my tumi backpacks... but for pretty much everything else, i did.

Use a pair of those colored (black, blue, red, etc.) velcro (narrow & short, 6" to 8") straps - typically used for electronic cables or as wire ties to keep the end strap in place (add a pc. to the strap itself if you don't want it to move around or slide/slip out of its place) I use those reflective 3M ones for visibility, small & subtle and works.

straps go into the shoulder pads and out on top back down, so they are not danging. The whole backpack swing forward too. Not cheap though....
