Water-resistant mid-sized option that’s recycled and looks quirky

Are you green-minded? The outside of the Urban is made from recycled inner tubes, the zip-pull was once a valve and the strap started out in life as a seatbelt.

Those tubes have been seam-sealed to keep water out – rain can sneak in at the corners, but not much. The easy-access pocket on the flap has a water-resistant zip too, making this a good all-weather option.

But bear in mind that although you can get a 17in laptop inside, there’s no padding to protect it (or you from it). You do, however, get some neat internal pockets, a chest strap that can run either way and broad reflective strips on the back. Volume is 16.5L.

Product "35075" does not exist or you do not have permission to access it.
