Abstract: A back pack folding chair is provided by three simple, U-shaped frames and has one of the panels of a back pack acting as the fabric seat for the folding chair. Back pack side pockets conveniently hang from the arms of the chair. The three U-shaped frames form a seat frame, arm frame and a back frame hinged together to allow the chair to fold into a neat compact package. One of the side pockets attached to the arm frame is removable for use as a waist or "fanny" pack. Shoulder straps and a belt allow the back pack folding chair to be easily carried on the shoulders.
