Materials and Construction
Main Body: 630D NanoTough Recycled Nylon
The main body uses Bluesign-approved 630D NanoTough, made from 100% recycled high-tenacity nylon with ripstop reinforcement and a carbonate coating.
NanoTough is engineered for exceptional abrasion resistance while remaining lightweight. The ripstop weave limits tear propagation, while the carbonate coating enhances weather resistance and structural integrity without unnecessary bulk.
Bottom Panel: 840D NanoTough Recycled Nylon
The reinforced base uses Bluesign-approved 840D NanoTough recycled high-tenacity nylon with a protective carbonate coating.
The higher-denier construction strengthens high-wear areas, improving durability against pavement contact, transport floors and daily abrasion.
Liner: 210D Recycled Nylon
The interior lining is Bluesign-approved 100% recycled 210D nylon with a PFAS-free DWR treatment.
This lightweight yet durable lining supports responsible chemical management while helping repel light moisture without long-lasting fluorinated compounds.
Backpanel and Harness Mesh: Recycled Polyester
All mesh components are Bluesign-approved and made from 100% recycled polyester, improving breathability while reducing environmental impact.
Bluesign-approved Build
Primary fabrics meet Bluesign approval standards, ensuring responsible chemical management, reduced water and energy use and safer production processes.
Features
Roll-Top Main Compartment
The roll-top closure with webbing strap and plastic buckle provides secure closure and adjustable volume. It allows you to compress the load when carrying less or expand capacity when needed, while offering greater weather resistance than standard zip openings.
External 16" Laptop Compartment
A dedicated external zippered compartment fits most laptops up to 16 inches, allowing quick access without opening the main roll-top section — ideal for commuting or airport security.
Internal Document Sleeve
An internal sleeve keeps documents, folders or tablets organised and protected within the main compartment.
Dual Side Zippered Water Bottle Pockets
Zippered side pockets securely hold water bottles while preventing items from falling out during movement.
Front Organisation Pocket
The front zip pocket includes internal organisers and a secure key clip, keeping smaller essentials neatly arranged and easily accessible.

A front stash pocket offers quick storage for a jacket, gloves or other grab-and-go items.

Front webbing loops provide additional carry options for accessories or externally secured gear.

Mesh-covered, die-cut structured foam creates ventilation channels while maintaining close-to-body stability for comfortable daily carry.

Improves load stability and weight distribution while providing an integrated safety whistle for added practicality.
Suspension and Carry System
Harness
The harness is constructed from spacer mesh and die-cut foam to balance cushioning and breathability. It provides comfortable all-day support while maintaining a clean, streamlined design.
