I see a lot of teenagers in Singapore like to let their backpacks hang low to their buttocks. Perhaps to avoid feeling hot, damage to their long hair (for ladies), or simply due to peer pressure. A simple search on the net at http://www.livingposture.com/article.php?id=8 shows that it's not good to hang the backpack that low.
http://www.backpacksafe.com/N5_News_Detail.asp?pid=6&ID=7 even provides a good load of academic journal on backpack links to injury.
Nevertheless, I still use a backpack although I strongly advocate using the backpack snuggling fit to one's back and put it sufficiently tight to the body to evenly distribut ethre weight across the body.
