Important information about the backpack model

  • The pattern of the daypack is a very minimalistic and simple model with one main compartment, without side pockets, with roll closure (incl. clip) and top zipper. This makes the rucksack very lightweight and gives space to the main compartment. (If every gram counts, an ultralight daypack can be sewn from Dyneema compound. For this contact us in advance.) Otherwise, sew a classy everyday backpack from dark blue Etaproof cotton and goatskin leather bottom.

  • The carrying straps can be removed completely and are looped in at the top with an aluminium tube (development OUTDOORWERK). This gives maximum flexibility and stability. This way the backpack can be completely finished and the carrying straps are only attached at the end.

  • Inside there is an open back compartment for laptops up to 13", which can be padded with seat mat. On the outside a removable strap can be attached, e.g. for a jacket. There is also an adjustable chest strap.

  • The standard includes a goatskin bottom. Optionally, an external pocket, e.g. straps for ice axe and a simple hip belt strap can be attached.

  • There is not enough time for complex larger attachments.

  • Own fabric can be taken along, if not chosen from OUTDOORWERK (contact OUTDOORWERK in case of uncertainty). Finding a suitable backpack fabric that keeps water out is not easy. Fabric thickness, feel, coating, etc. must be right.

  • Material: EtaProof recycled cotton colours: charcoal (dark blue/black), Nato Green, Bordeaux, black; on special request: Dyneema Compound (please ask for availability), Zippers No.5, colour mud/dark grey, Buckles Duraflex Nulite 10/20mm dark grey, Tapes dark grey
