A storage rack - for the back of your Mac.

BackPack attaches to the back of your iMac or Studio Display stand, which is the perfect place to keep things like backup hard drives and hubs hidden. The aluminum vented shelf includes an Apple Watch-like band that lets you strap gear to the top and bottom of BackPack. Included Twist Ties make it easy to tidy up cables and keep that clean, minimal Apple aesthetic.

Personalize your space with Backpack.

For those of you sitting with the back of your iMac or Studio Display in plain sight, use the matte white BackPack as a display shelf. You can set all sorts of fun things like figurines, flowers or collectibles on BackPack. If your iMac is the first thing people see when they walk into your salon, spa or co-working space, use BackPack to display a welcome sign, hold business cards or maybe a small candy dish. Get as creative as you like with what you display on BackPack.

The hub stops here.

If you’re using a USB-C hub to add legacy ports to the USB-C-only iMac or Studio Display, BackPack is the perfect parking spot for that hub. BackPack keeps your hub hidden and the short cable on most USB hubs will reach the USB-C ports on your display. You can also use in the included BackPack strap to secure your hub so you can unplug and plug in cables with one hand (and keep other from borrowing your hub). Need the perfect hub for your new setup? Look no further than StayGo.

Backpack-Explode-Animation

Installs in two steps.

BackPack is a snap to install. Literally. A two-piece holster snaps into the oval opening on the back of your iMac or Studio Display stand. Then you slide the stand onto the holster. That’s it. So easy. By the way, the holster is clear, so the color of your iMac shows through. Spruce up your Mac workspace. Order your BackPack today.

    Better design than the previous model, but fussy to attach

    After an Apple rep assured me that the M4 iMac cord pass-through was the same dimensions as the M1's, I ordered one of these for my new M4. I greatly appreciate the simplified design over the previous Backpack.

    Minor complaints:

    • The fit is very tight and slightly difficult to attach to the Mac's leg.

    • I wish it could somehow be height-adjustable, but I understand that the design doesn't permit that.

    • I'd also have preferred a bare-aluminum finish to the white.

    That said, I'm very happy to have it.

    Perfect Accessory for Silicon iMacs

    I have two Silicon iMacs and have purchased the BackPack for iMac on both. Really a nice way to store my external SSD's and get them hidden & off the desktop. No hesitation to recomend them for anyone with an iMac.

    Works well. It was a little tough to snap the parts together, but that is the point. Super sturdy. I used the stands from my previous backpack and they fit perfectly.
