Both practical and technical, you can use it on your commute or any time you travel. Lightweight Construction Made with lightweight material that doesn't sacrifice durability — easier to carry on long commutes, transit, and travel days without feeling weighed down. Padded, Fleece-Lined 16" Laptop Compartment Padded, fleece-lined 16" laptop compartment protects your computer from bumps and scratches while in transit — the fleece lining prevents the screen and lid from getting scuffed by other items inside the pack. Breathable, Padded Back Panel Breathable, padded back panel channels air against your back while providing cushioning — keeps you cooler on warm commutes and reduces pressure points when the pack is fully loaded. Organized Main Compartment Main zippered compartment has plenty of space for work or travel items plus a secure-zip mesh pocket with a key hook for organization — keeps your keys, charging cables, and small essentials accessible without digging through the bottom of the pack. Secure-Zip Top-Lid Organizer Secure-zip top-lid pocket provides useful organization with a sleeve pocket, mesh pen slots, and a fleece-lined pocket for your phone or sunglasses — protects your phone screen and sunglass lenses from scratches. Two Water Bottle Pockets Two water bottle pockets on the sides accommodate standard bottles and insulated tumblers — keep hydration accessible without opening the main compartment. Side Compression Straps Side compression straps adjust the volume of the pack — cinch down to keep contents from shifting when the pack isn't fully loaded, and tighten the profile for crowded transit. Load Lifters at Shoulder Straps Load lifters at the shoulder straps adjust weight distribution for a more balanced carry — pull the pack closer to your center of gravity to reduce shoulder strain on heavy loads. Coated Face Fabric Durable, coated face fabric provides a sleek look and durability against the elements — shrugs off light rain and resists abrasion from being set down on wet pavement or under seats. Adjustable Sternum Strap Adjustable sternum strap stabilizes the load on the shoulders — keeps the shoulder straps from sliding outward on technical terrain and distributes weight across the chest. Top Grab Handle Top grab handle for quick grabs from lockers, overhead bins, and car trunks — makes the pack easy to lift and carry short distances without needing to shoulder it. Reflective Details Reflective details increase visibility in low-light conditions — important for walking and biking commutes in early-morning dark and evening commutes in winter. Sizing Sizes One size Volume 1,648 in³ (27 liters) Dimensions 18.9" x 12.4" x 6.3" (48 x 31.5 x 16 cm) Avg Weight 2 lbs 6.5 oz (1,090 g) Materials Main Body 300D recycled polyester with TPU coating Boot (Reinforced Base) 400D recycled nylon with PU coating Recycled Content Recycled polyester body + recycled nylon boot Storage & Organization Laptop Compartment Padded, fleece-lined 16" laptop sleeve Main Compartment Zippered with secure-zip mesh pocket + key hook Top-Lid Pocket Secure-zip with sleeve pocket + mesh pen slots + fleece-lined phone/sunglasses pocket Side Pockets Two water bottle pockets Carry System Back Panel Breathable + padded Shoulder Straps With load lifters for weight distribution adjustment Sternum Strap Adjustable Compression Side compression straps Grab Handle Top grab handle Reflectivity Reflective details for low-light visibility Cleaning Spot clean the 300D recycled polyester body with a damp cloth and mild soap. Empty all pockets before cleaning and remove the laptop sleeve contents. For a deeper clean, hand wash in cool water with a gentle technical cleaner — avoid machine washing, which can damage the TPU coating, deform the back panel, and stress the zippers beyond daily-commute use. Drying Air dry at room temperature with the main compartment fully open and all pockets unzipped. Don't use a dryer or direct heat, which can warp the back panel and degrade the TPU coating on the body fabric. Laptop Sleeve Care Wipe the fleece-lined laptop sleeve interior with a dry cloth occasionally to keep it free of crumbs, pens, and small debris. The fleece lining protects your laptop from scratches but won't protect against liquid spills — keep liquids in the side water bottle pockets, not in the main compartment. Zipper Maintenance Wipe all zippers with a dry cloth occasionally to keep them operating smoothly. If a zipper sticks, gently work it back and forth — never force it, which can bend the slider. The top-lid, main compartment, and laptop sleeve zippers all need the same gentle treatment. Reflective Detail Care Don't use harsh chemical cleaners on the reflective details — they can strip the reflective coating. Mild soap and water is enough for spot cleaning around the reflective trim. Storage Empty the pack completely between trips and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Hang by the top grab handle or stand upright to maintain the back panel shape. Don't store with food wrappers, gym clothes, or sticky residue left inside. Show more
