Abstract

A carrier is provided for converting from an inline skate sling to a shoe backpack and vice versa. As carrier for skates; the inline skate sling includes a square shaped pouch with one rounded corner at the end of each side of the elongated central sling. When not in use as a sling carrier for skates, the framed compartments for skates are readily converted by user from inline skate sling to shoe backpack turning the pouches into storage units for shoes. There are three buttons positioned on each side of the sling allowing the sling to flip and retract over shoulders into shoe backpack. The shoe backpack is a carrier of shoes and small items used while skating and may be readily converted by a user from the shoe backpack to the inline skate sling used for the particular mode of walking with sling for carrier of skates.
