Orbis 1-Pocket Backpack

To create bags that can be 100% recycled, we needed to make them using just one material. That material is recycled PET/polyester, the same material as a plastic bottle. We use it to create every part of this bag – from the fabric to the lining, reinforcement, and zippers. This means the entire bag can be completely recycled at the end of its life, with nothing going to landfill. Explore our award-winning Orbis Circular Collection.

Almost all bags are made from a mix of materials, with dozens of different components. Most also include polyurethane (PU). When PU is combined with other materials, recycling is virtually impossible. So we worked with development labs to create components from scratch, using nothing but recycled PET/polyester. Making every part of this bag from one material, with no PU, means it can be 100% recycled at the end of its life.

Designed for easy packing and intuitive access to your gear, so everything is exactly where you need it. A zipped and padded section protects your 16-inch laptop or tablet, and a large mesh pocket provides at-a-glance access to your tech accessories. Not to mention interior slip-pockets and a bottle pocket, plus exterior pockets for any essentials you need within reach.

The ergonomically curved shoulder straps distribute weight evenly and minimise pressure points, while the padded back panel in 3D breathable mesh keeps you cool and dry.

We also developed a felt padding made from PET molecules to ensure both protection and comfort.

Designed in the UK by people who know all about rain. Our revolutionary fluorocarbon-free waterproofing ensures more sustainable protection against the worst weather. This bluesign-approved technology helps keep your gear dry while treading lightly on the planet.
