Finally, somebody has designed a backpack for four-time NBA champion Shaquille O'Neal.

It's so large.

Sprayground, a streetwear company that focuses on backpacks, teamed up with Shaq to create a product that fits the 7-foot-1 basketball legend. It's available now along with a couple of other backpacks inspired by the star of Kazaam.

The three backpacks were designed by David Ben-David, Sprayground’s creative director and founder, with some help from Shaq himself. The two backpacks you see on the left are normal-sized, one of which features Shaq as the star of a $34 bill (a reference to the number he wore with the Los Angeles Lakers). The other portrays Shaq as a cartoon among other Sprayground characters.

Sprayground's Shaq Attack backpack, which appears to be roughly four times the size of a standard, puts the focus on Shaq's time with the Lakers, with whom he won three of his four NBA championship rings.

The two regular-sized backpacks are available for $75, while the giant backpack is $100. All three are limited edition items, and according to Sprayground they won't go back into production after the initial run.
