The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" class=\"text-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYKK water repellent zippers let sweat and water water drops roll off like 'Poof!'

We rolled up our sleeves and got down to doing just that! (We're a bit competitive that way.) Many prototypes later and we're proud to announce a bag that not only incorporates our hardcore cyclist intern's suggestions, but also carries his name: The VerBockel rolltop backpack. The 28 liter water-repellent VerBockel Wax Canvas rolltop pack is made for serious adventure travel, all-weather commuting, and hauling gear. We built it versatile enough to pack for a camping trip, to be your daily driver or simply to haul groceries home. Pack it light and this is a simple and comfortable 'don't have to even know it's there' pack on your back. Need to pack it as a 'bug-out bag' packed to the hilt with 72 hours worth of heavy duty cargo? No problem. It'll fit!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis bag is 100% water-resistant with uber durable construction. It's a multi-use carry that functions in a variety of roles and environments. While it isn't technically a dry-bag, it is beyond bad ass in the rain as we sought out the most amazing 14 oz. water repellent treated and mildew resistant TEXWAX™ canvas we could find. The VerBockel includes a comfortable vented closed-cell foam back panel which helps to ventilate sweat away from your body and has MIL-SPEC haul handles \u0026amp; MOLLE system on both the sides and shoulder straps. Both are perfect for attaching carabiners, water bottles or GoPro's to capture the action.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe doubled up our 2\" MIL-SPEC webbing for added durability on the shoulder straps resulting in an amazingly comfortable, longer lasting strap system. The inside has a closed-cell foam padded computer section with padding on the sides as well as the bottom. After all, who in the hell knows when you might drop this bad boy and who wants to worry about damaging their precious computer? We placed 2 pockets and a D ring for keys on the top of the computer section after studying many other brands had placed theirs oddly low and out of easy reach. One of the best things about this pack is it can be used as a deep, fully open cargo carrier due to it's carry handles. So you can put in everything from: Bike polo mallets, to grocery items, or hell even golf clubs for the range! Our designers just added a large exterior 'dump pocket' for quick storage. It has a large sized Water-Resistant \u003c\/span\u003eYKK VISLON® AquaGuard® Zipper to keep your gear dry and safe during any mission. If you're considering a bag from DEFY, we strongly recommend our new staff favorite, The VerBockel Rolltop backpack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Black TexWax™ Canvas","offer_id":39587140730966,"sku":"B2302WAX-BLK-WRZ","price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/916H6SIicUL._SL1500.jpg?v=1557766326"},{"product_id":"recon-horween-black-austin-calf-leather-messenger-bag","title":"Recon Horween Austin Calf Leather Ultimate Bundle","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Recon-Bundle-includes-graphic.jpg?v=1745428661\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 13\" MacBook Pro \u0026amp; similar sized computers\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 17.5 wide x 11.5 tall x 4.5 deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 14.5\" wide x 10\" tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: Horween Austin Calf Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTRIM: Horween Austin Calf Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLOSURE: x2 High Strength AustriAlpin™ quick release 2\" COBRA\u003cstrong\u003e® \u003c\/strong\u003ebuckles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Black-leather-on-table2.jpg?v=1717861248\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHANDLE: 2\" MIL-SPEC Webbing \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAP: Detachable \/ Adjustable 2\" MIL-SPEC Webbing with Horween Austin Calf Leather accents \u0026amp; Matte Black Swivel Clips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTRA: Pen and Business Card Holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eINTERIOR: Computer section, pockets, D ring for keys and new stash pockets on inside front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 3.35 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVOLUME: 11 \u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eLiters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Blood_duffle-18_grande.jpg?v=1509074492\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSearch the field.

It is full grain, which means it has not been sanded, buffed, or corrected in any way to remove or cover up imperfections. The leather is hand-rubbed with several coats of aniline dye and hand-glazed to give it its burnished appearance. The naturally occurring hides come from animals that were used for meat. Each bag is measured and cut by hand and triple-stitched with industrial-strength, extra thick thread at each joint point for added strength by Chicago crafts people.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather","offer_id":39587138699350,"sku":"B2005HL-OXB","price":788.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/oxblood-messenger-15.jpg?v=1581695023"},{"product_id":"the-menace-backpack-black-ballistic-nylon","title":"Menace Backpack 2.0 \/ Ballistic Nylon \/ Ships in 3-4 Weeks","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHandmade ballistic nylon backpack built in Chicago for everyday carry and adventure\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 16\" MacBook Pro \u0026amp; Smaller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 11\" Wide x 5.5\" Deep x 17.5\" High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 10.5\" Wide x 16\" High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: 1,050 Denier Water-Resistant MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLOSURE: 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHANDLE: 1\" MIL-SPEC Webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAPS: Closed-Cell Foam Technology padding wrapped in 2\" MIL-SPEC Webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eINTERIOR: Easy to see inside 1,000 Denier Water-Resistant Silver CORDURA® with 1 Large zippered pocket, Closed-Cell Foam padded computer section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZIPPERS: Easy to access Water-Repellent YKK VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 3 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR POCKETS: Fit up to 32 oz.

The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/parker-2.0-FEATURES_600x600.jpg?v=1590781183\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/parker-2.0-FEATURES2_480x480.jpg?v=1590781216\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Ballistic Nylon","offer_id":39587138994262,"sku":"B3301BN-BLK-WRZ","price":168.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/Black-Wax-Parker-2.0-9.jpg?v=1593101016"},{"product_id":"the-parker-fanny-waist-pack-black-wax-canvas","title":"The Parker Pack 2.0 Black TexWax™ Canvas \/ Ships in 2-3 Weeks","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: Ideal for: Cameras (crop body DSLR + rangefinder fit), everyday carry, festivals, Nintendo Switch, travel, hiking, cycling, parenting, carrying small weapons during zombie apocalypse, marble collections, and other things nobody needs to know about.

The 28 liter water-repellent VerBockel MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon roll top pack is made for serious adventure travel, all-weather commuting, and hauling gear. We built it versatile enough to pack for a camping trip, to be your daily driver or simply to haul groceries home. Pack it light and this is a simple and comfortable 'don't have to even know it's there' pack on your back.

The VerBockel includes a comfortable vented closed-cell foam back panel which helps to ventilate sweat away from your body and has MIL-SPEC haul handles \u0026amp; MOLLE system on both the sides and shoulder straps.

After all, who in the hell knows when you might drop this bad boy and who wants to worry about damaging their precious computer? One of the best things about this pack is it can be used as a deep, fully open cargo carrier due to it's carry handles.

The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Ballistic Nylon","offer_id":39587133915222,"sku":"B3000BN-BLK-WRZ","price":238.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/Insidious-Jr_12.jpg?v=1588185619"},{"product_id":"insidious-jr-sling-messenger-black-wax-canvas","title":"Insidious Jr. Sling \/ Black TexWax™ Canvas","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eFIT: iPad, iPad Air, and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eiPad Mini fit in tech compartment\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e12.5” W x 9” T x 3.5\" D\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTECH POCKET SECTION: 10.5\" Wide x 8.5\" Tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: 14 oz.

What if we made it with MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon and Paracord? What if we blew it up in scale a touch so you could carry a basketball, motorcycle helmet or beach gear?

The layers in the standard pack cloth consist of a nylon face fabric, a polyester “X-Ply” mesh, a waterproof film and light taffeta backing with a water-resistant coating. Developed and distributed by the sailcloth makers Dimension-Polyant, the company discovered that much of the technology they had developed for making specialized racing sails was also capable of producing a unique bag material. A good sail needs to be as light as possible, whilst strong enough to withstand the forces running through it. To retain its intended shape the fabric needs to be stable across all dimensions. It also needs to survive the elements by not absorbing water and being resistant to UV. With these properties, and with the fabric being relatively accessible, it’s no surprise that cottage industry bag makers jumped on board. In particular, the waterproofness and structure of the fabric was far greater than other lightweight materials used at the time, such as silnylon. The waterproof film provides waterproofness up to 200 PSI, which means packs are pretty much rainproof and don’t gain weight whilst hiking in the rain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca

The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Horween Cavalier Whiskey Leather","offer_id":39587134242902,"sku":"B3000BN-BLK-HL-CAV-WHS","price":268.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/2021-Whiskey-Insidious-Jr_2.jpg?v=1628541459"},{"product_id":"insidious-jr-sling-messenger-horween-burgundy-oxblood-leather-ballistic-nylon","title":"Insidious Jr. Sling \/ Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather + Ballistic Nylon Edition \/ Ships in 1-2 Weeks","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: iPad, iPad Air, and iPad Mini fit in tech compartment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e12.5” W x 9” T x 3.5\" D\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTECH POCKET SECTION: 10.5\" Wide x 8.5\" Tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: Water-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon exterior with Horween Chromexel® Leather + 1,000 Denier Water-Resistant Silver CORDURA® interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZIPPERS: 2 Large, Double Headed easy to access YKK Water-Resistant VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAP: Closed-Cell Foam Padded Removable, Reversible for 'Righties' + 'Lefties' $30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle capable of holding 1,000 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 COMPARTMENTS: 2 dimensional pockets, pen holder, tech pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD RING ON BACK: For attaching optional Cycling Stabilizer Strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 2.0 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLITERS: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROUDLY MADE IN THE USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/horween-guy-with-leather_600x600.jpg?v=1611898438\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.carryology.com\/liking\/industry\/best-new-gear-august-2019\/?mc_cid=6753c24072\u0026amp;mc_eid=eb7105b89c\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/CARRYOLOGY_BEST_NEW_GEAR_2019_grande.jpg?v=1567699804\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.carryology.com\/top-5-best-sling-bag-2020-voting\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/top-5-site-bannerv2_195aa215-86d0-4e78-9cae-427bd6a5e727_1024x1024.jpg?v=1599249246\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/WARNING_grande.jpg?v=1563832167\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHey, it’s me.

The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" class=\"text-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather","offer_id":39587134406742,"sku":"B3000BN-BLK-HL-OXB","price":268.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/insidious-jr-oxblood1.jpg?v=1745596143"},{"product_id":"epic-48-hour-briefcase-black-ballistic-nylon","title":"Epic 48 Hour Briefcase \/ Ballistic Nylon \/ Ships in 6-10 Weeks","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFIT: 16\" MacBook Pro and smaller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: 1,050 Denier Water Resistant Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 16\" wide x 12.5\" tall\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFRONT POCKETS: 7.75\" wide x 8.5\" tall x 1.5\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eINTERIOR MATERIAL: 1,000 Denier Water-Resistant Silver CORDURA®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTRIM: Horween Bridle Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAP: Detachable MIL-SPEC webbing with military grade metal hardware and Horween leather trim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eCLOSURE: Oversized \u003c\/span\u003eYKK VISLON® AquaGuard® rubberized Zippers with hand-riveted Horween Austin Calf Leather pull tabs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTRA: Padded Computer pocket with Horween Leather snap closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTRAVEL: 9.5\" wide Trolley Strap to fasten to luggage handle \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eDIMENSIONS: 17\" wide x 14.5 tall\" x \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e4.75\"\u003c\/span\u003e deep\u003c\/span\u003e (plus an extra 1.5\" depth from front pockets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 3.75 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eVOLUME: 17 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eLiters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/thick-black-leather-on-table.jpg?v=1717860996\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/briefcases_large.jpg?v=1539203631\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s_material_comparison2_898cc13f-4473-4b74-8840-b033f77f2671_large.jpg?v=1540927687\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fun thing about having customers in our showroom is they get a chance to see new, unreleased bags, designs and ideas. This bag was named after a customer walked in, held it up and looked at the bag from every angle and said, 'This is seriously an Epic bag!' We loved the name so much it stuck. For DEFY it was an epic undertaking to develop this bag. We studied vintage French, German and Danish military bags. We studied bags on the market today. We took away what we didn't like and added what did. We infused it with requests from the DEFY community. Requests like 'Make a deeper work bag that I can use as a weekender.' Or, 'Make a travel bag that has a trolley strap on the back so when I'm running through the airport I don't have to worry about it falling off my suitcase'.

Originally a rayon product used in WWII tyres. After the war DuPont developed nylon which became a primary component of tire manufacturing. In the mid-70’s, a process was developed to dye nylon fabric and the CORDURA® name was reborn and applied to the now classic line of nylon fabrics. These days you might notice the CORDURA® brand tag appearing on all sorts of gear; the now INVISTA-owned brand have since developed all sorts of textiles including lightweight and apparel fabrics. But when it comes to bags the fabric most people think of is CORDURA® Classic, air textured, 1000D or 500D plain weave Nylon 6.6. Used in everything from school bags to soldiers’ boots, the now ubiquitous cloth has had a huge influence on the carry world for over 50 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Rogue Camo MultiCam Black™ CORDURA®","offer_id":39587138928726,"sku":"B3500CC-BLK-WRZ","price":388.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/2021-Rogue-Camo-Rover10.jpg?v=1618540474"},{"product_id":"insidious-sling-messenger-black-ballistic-nylon","title":"Insidious Sling \/ Ballistic Nylon \/ Ships in 1-2 Weeks","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 14\" Macbook Pro and smaller, iPad, Camera, and other tech fitting below dimensions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePADDED TECH POCKET SECTION: (Closest to Body): Pocket Height 8\" Tall \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ex \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e16\" Wide\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/2021-Ballistic-Nylon-Insidious-Computer-Pocket_480x480.jpg?v=1624899850\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 16\" wide x 9\" tall x 5\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: Water-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon exterior + 1,000 Denier Water-Resistant Silver CORDURA® interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZIPPERS: 3 Easy to access YKK Water-Resistant VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAP: (Part of our new 'Tether System') Closed-Cell Foam Padded Removable, Reversible for 'Righties' + 'Lefties' $30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle capable of holding 1,000 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 COMPARTMENTS: Pockets, pen \/ tool holders, dimensional pockets, MIL-SPEC Rifle Gun Clip for keys.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD RING ON BACK: For attaching optional Stabilizer Strap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 2.5 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLITRES: 10.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROUDLY MADE IN THE USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.carryology.com\/liking\/industry\/best-new-gear-august-2019\/?mc_cid=6753c24072\u0026amp;mc_eid=eb7105b89c\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/CARRYOLOGY_BEST_NEW_GEAR_2019_grande.jpg?v=1567699804\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGuess what?

The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" class=\"text-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/2022-BANNER_insidious-in-car_43f259f0-1c32-415d-a4d8-bbcd8a82741a_1024x1024.jpg?v=1654216484\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Ballistic Nylon","offer_id":39587134570582,"sku":"B2404BN-BLK","price":278.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/sling_t-2_ba2c0bea-3210-4e6a-a609-6cb5058013d4.jpg?v=1616531661"},{"product_id":"insidious-sling-messenger-black-ballistic-nylon-horween-burgundy-oxblood-chromexel-leather","title":"Insidious Sling \/ Ballistic Nylon + Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather \/ Ships in 3-4 Weeks","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 14\" Macbook Pro and smaller, iPad, Camera, and other tech fitting below dimensions.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePADDED TECH POCKET SECTION: (Closest to Body): Pocket Height 8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e x \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e16\" Wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 16\" wide x 9\" tall x 5\" deep\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: Water-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon exterior, Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather + 1,000 Denier Water-Resistant Silver CORDURA® interior\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZIPPERS: 3 Easy to access YKK Water-Resistant VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAP: (Part of our new 'Tether System') Closed-Cell Foam Padded Removable, Reversible for 'Righties' + 'Lefties' $30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle capable of holding 1,000 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 COMPARTMENTS: Pockets, pen \/ tool holders, dimensional pockets, MIL-SPEC Rifle Gun Clip for keys.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD RING ON BACK: For attaching optional Stabilizer Strap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 2.5 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLITRES: 10.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROUDLY MADE IN THE USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.carryology.com\/liking\/industry\/best-new-gear-august-2019\/?mc_cid=6753c24072\u0026amp;mc_eid=eb7105b89c\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/CARRYOLOGY_BEST_NEW_GEAR_2019_grande.jpg?v=1567699804\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/WARNING_grande.jpg?v=1563832167\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHey, it’s me.

The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" class=\"text-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Horween Oxblood Chromexel® Leather","offer_id":39587134931030,"sku":"B2404BN-BLK-HL-OXB","price":298.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/Insidious_B_O-1_28d5d400-1048-4eb5-9729-84fe1dda6ee9.jpg?v=1623944130"},{"product_id":"insidious-sling-messenger-black-wax-canvas","title":"Insidious Sling \/ Black TexWax™ Canvas","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 14\" Macbook Pro and smaller, iPad, Camera, and other tech fitting below dimensions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePADDED TECH POCKET SECTION: (Closest to Body): Pocket Height 8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e x \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e16\" Wide\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/2021-Black-Wax-Insidious-Computer-Pocket_480x480.jpg?v=1624898761\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 16\" wide x 9\" tall x 5\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: Water-Resistant 14 oz.

We rolled up our sleeves and got down to doing just that! (We're a bit competitive that way.) Many prototypes later and we're proud to announce a bag that not only incorporates our hardcore cyclist intern's suggestions, but also carries his name: The VerBockel roll top backpack. The 28 liter water-repellent VerBockel MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon roll top pack is made for serious adventure travel, all-weather commuting, and hauling gear. We built it versatile enough to pack for a camping trip, to be your daily driver or simply to haul groceries home. Pack it light and this is a simple and comfortable 'don't have to even know it's there' pack on your back. Need to pack it as a 'bug-out bag' packed to the hilt with 72 hours worth of heavy duty cargo? No problem. It'll fit!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis bag is 100% water-resistant with uber durable construction.

While it isn't technically a dry-bag, it is beyond bad ass in the rain as we sought out the most amazing 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Water Repellent Ballistic Nylon we could find. The VerBockel includes a comfortable vented closed-cell foam back panel which helps to ventilate sweat away from your body and has MIL-SPEC haul handles \u0026amp; MOLLE system on both the sides and shoulder straps. Both are perfect for attaching carabiners, water bottles or GoPro's to capture the action.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe doubled up our 2\" MIL-SPEC webbing for added durability on the shoulder straps resulting in an amazingly comfortable, longer lasting strap system. The inside has a closed-cell foam padded computer section with padding on the sides as well as the bottom. After all, who in the hell knows when you might drop this bad boy and who wants to worry about damaging their precious computer?

Repel the attack. You know the boardroom needs someone with some stones. That’s where the Defender comes in. The Defender is equal parts Seal Team 6 and preppy look. Bad ass meets ‘Pardon me sir’. DEFY is hand-crafting this series from Chicago’s century old iconic Horween Leather. The bag takes nearly an entire side of leather just to create 1 Defender. The entire length of the bag is finished by our master leather workers with hand-skived leather to give it a truly smart and highly rugged, finished look. Horween Whiskey Leather from Horween just gets better with time, changing its patina as you use it and developing a character as it gets banged around. We've integrated $60 worth of 1” AustriAlpin Cobra Quick Release buckles for good measure. The same buckles used by Special Forces in theater today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\"\u003eYour computer will sleep soundly ensconced in closed-cell foam technology sourced from an industry leading foam-technology company.

Survey the terrain. Or hell, just take it to the corner coffee shop. The Recon Mashup Edition is a suitable tool for any mission. This new collision of the Recon and Vicious bags sports the Vicious' best designed closed-cell foam padded strap. But we made some improvements to it. Many customers told us they were 'righties'. Many told us they were 'lefties'. In the past the Vicious only served one. Our team set out to design a removable padded strap that can be used by both. This uber comfortable, adjustable padded strap has a 2\" Matte Black D Ring that (for the first time at DEFY) helps you quickly and precisely adjust your strap length, then get on with your mission. It's also great for hanging water bottles from. Each strap has ample MIL-SPEC MOLLE webbing that's perfect for hanging your gear from. With the Mashup 2.0 Strap we made a slight tweak that most will never see, but all will appreciate. The strap adjustment system cleverly keeps excess slack from flailing about. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you're looking to carry the Mashup by the top handle on a regular basis, we'd recommend you try the Mr. Gripper Leather Handle.

This bag was named after a customer walked in, held it up and looked at the bag from every angle and said, 'This is seriously an Epic bag!' We loved the name so much it stuck. For DEFY it was an epic undertaking to develop this bag. We studied vintage French, German and Danish military bags. We studied bags on the market today. We took away what we didn't like and added what did. We infused it with requests from the DEFY community. Requests like 'Make a deeper work bag that I can use as a weekender.' Or, 'Make a travel bag that has a trolley strap on the back so when I'm running through the airport I don't have to worry about it falling off my suitcase'.

The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/2022-BANNER_insidious-in-car_43f259f0-1c32-415d-a4d8-bbcd8a82741a_1024x1024.jpg?v=1654216484\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e$30 imported 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA® Quick-Release Buckle \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/buckle2_large.gif?v=1529604975\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional Stabilizer Strap Add-On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-1_large.jpg?v=1563823983\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/stablizer_straps-2_large.jpg?v=1563824001\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Water_Test--Ballistic_Nylon_large.gif?v=1540575992\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/Tag_s-material-comparison3_600x600.jpg?v=1595211175\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Ballistic Nylon","offer_id":44558618984747,"sku":"B2404BN-BLK-EPX-BO","price":278.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/sling_t-2_5ae13a91-a7f8-4835-8c2c-23c771cee4e9.jpg?v=1678826229"},{"product_id":"bucktown-backpack-ballistic-nylon-ecopak-epx-blaze-orange","title":"Bucktown 'Fire Edition' \/ Ballistic Nylon x ECOPAK™ EPX Blaze Orange","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHandmade MIL-SPEC ballistic nylon backpack built in Chicago for daily carry and travel\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 16\" MacBook Pro and most other PC's \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 12\" wide x 15.5\" tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR MATERIAL: \u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e1,050\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e Denier Water-Resistant MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eINTERIOR MATERIAL: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eECOPAK™ EPX Bright Orange 200 Denier Waterproof 100% recycled polyester components, 45° Blue CrossPly for added strength, 70 Denier ripstop backing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePADDING: Closed cell foam technology on entirety of computer section, bottom of bag, \u0026amp; back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAPS: Comfortable thick padded straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHANDLE: 2\" MIL-SPEC seat belt strapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR POCKET: Exterior YKK Water-Repellent VISLON® AquaGuard® Zipper pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKEY STORAGE: Solid matte black steel gun clip and D rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLOSURE: YKK Water-Repellent VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 12\" wide x 19\" tall x 6\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 2.75 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR POCKETS: Fit up to 32 oz.

This new collision of the Recon and Vicious bags sports the Vicious' best designed closed-cell foam padded strap. But we made some improvements to it. Many customers told us they were 'righties'. Many told us they were 'lefties'. In the past the Vicious only served one. Our team set out to design a removable padded strap that can be used by both. This uber comfortable, adjustable padded strap has a 2\" Matte Black D Ring that (for the first time at DEFY) helps you quickly and precisely adjust your strap length, then get on with your mission. It's also great for hanging water bottles from. Each strap has ample MIL-SPEC MOLLE webbing that's perfect for hanging your gear from. With the Mashup 2.0 Strap we made a slight tweak that most will never see, but all will appreciate. The strap adjustment system cleverly keeps excess slack from flailing about. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you're looking to carry the Mashup by the top handle on a regular basis, we'd recommend you try the Mr. Gripper Leather Handle.

Originally a rayon product used in WWII tyres. After the war DuPont developed nylon which became a primary component of tire manufacturing. In the mid-70’s, a process was developed to dye nylon fabric and the CORDURA® name was reborn and applied to the now classic line of nylon fabrics. These days you might notice the CORDURA® brand tag appearing on all sorts of gear; the now INVISTA-owned brand have since developed all sorts of textiles including lightweight and apparel fabrics. But when it comes to bags the fabric most people think of is CORDURA® Classic, air textured, 1000D or 500D plain weave Nylon 6.6. Used in everything from school bags to soldiers’ boots, the now ubiquitous cloth has had a huge influence on the carry world for over 50 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Rogue Camo MultiCam Black™ CORDURA®","offer_id":44700717482283,"sku":"B3500CC-BLK-EPX-BO-WRZ","price":388.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/2021-Rogue-Camo-Rover10_e41af041-c7fd-43ae-b0e2-531814803220.jpg?v=1678211415"},{"product_id":"bucktown-backpack-black-x-pac-x-ecopak-epx-blaze-orange","title":"Bucktown \/ Black X-Pac™ Exterior x Redrum Edition \/ Last 1","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandmade MIL-SPEC X-Pac™ backpack built in Chicago for daily carry and travel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFIT: 16\" MacBook Pro and most other PC's \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 12\" wide x 15.5\" tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEXTERIOR MATERIAL: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eX-Pac™ \/ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVX21 BLACK DWR - 1500, 210 D Ripstop Nylon face, .25 mil polyester film, Black Polyester X-PLY at 22, 50 D polyester taffeta backing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eINTERIOR MATERIAL: X-Pac™ \/ \u003cspan\u003eVX21 TRUE RED DWR - 1500, 210 D Ripstop Nylon face, .25 mil polyester film, Red Polyester X-PLY at 22, 50 D polyester taffeta backing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePADDING: Closed cell foam technology on entirety of computer section, bottom of bag, \u0026amp; back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAPS: Comfortable thick padded straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHANDLE: 2\" MIL-SPEC seat belt strapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR POCKET: Exterior YKK Water-Repellent VISLON® AquaGuard® Zipper pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKEY STORAGE: Solid matte black steel gun clip and D rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLOSURE: YKK Water-Repellent VISLON® AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR POCKETS: Fits up to 32 oz.

The layers in the standard pack cloth consist of a nylon face fabric, a polyester “X-Ply” mesh, a waterproof film and light taffeta backing with a water-resistant coating. Developed and distributed by the sailcloth makers Dimension-Polyant, the company discovered that much of the technology they had developed for making specialized racing sails was also capable of producing a unique bag material. A good sail needs to be as light as possible, whilst strong enough to withstand the forces running through it. To retain its intended shape the fabric needs to be stable across all dimensions. It also needs to survive the elements by not absorbing water and being resistant to UV.

The layers in the standard pack cloth consist of a nylon face fabric, a polyester “X-Ply” mesh, a waterproof film and light taffeta backing with a water-resistant coating. Developed and distributed by the sailcloth makers Dimension-Polyant, the company discovered that much of the technology they had developed for making specialized racing sails was also capable of producing a unique bag material. A good sail needs to be as light as possible, whilst strong enough to withstand the forces running through it. To retain its intended shape the fabric needs to be stable across all dimensions. It also needs to survive the elements by not absorbing water and being resistant to UV. With these properties, and with the fabric being relatively accessible, it’s no surprise that cottage industry bag makers jumped on board. In particular, the waterproofness and structure of the fabric was far greater than other lightweight materials used at the time, such as silnylon. The waterproof film provides waterproofness up to 200 PSI, which means packs are pretty much rainproof and don’t gain weight whilst hiking in the rain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e(Source:\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/dyneema-vs-x-pac-ultralight-fabrics\/#:~:text=WHAT%20IS%20X%2DPAC%3F,with%20a%20water%2Dresistant%20coating.\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCarryology\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/ScreenShot2023-04-12at11.48.33AM_1024x1024.png?v=1681318145\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/ScreenShot2023-04-06at8.27.05PM_1024x1024.png?v=1680830850\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/IMB_rLn2IC_600x600_e50e8bb6-d8e1-4137-9b23-2e8fc0603383_1024x1024.webp?v=1675256384\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/ScreenShot2023-02-01at6.58.16AM_1024x1024.png?v=1675256321\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Defy Bags","offers":[{"title":"Black X-Pac™","offer_id":44859155906859,"sku":"B2039XPC-BLK-TRD-WRZ","price":268.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/products\/XPAC_Overnighter_1.jpg?v=1681317710"},{"product_id":"menace-backpack-2-0-rogue-camo-cordura-x-ecopak-epx-fire-edition","title":"Menace Backpack 2.0 \/ Rogue Camo CORDURA® x ECOPAK™ EPX 'Fire Edition' \/ Low Stock","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e Handmade Rogue Camo CORDURA® x ECOPAK™ EPX 'Fire Edition'  backpack built in Chicago for everyday carry and adventure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIT: 16\" MacBook Pro \u0026amp; Smaller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS: 11\" Wide x 5.5\" Deep x 17.5\" High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOMPUTER SECTION: 10.5\" Wide x 16\" High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMATERIAL: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eWater-Resistant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1,000 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eMIL-SPEC Rogue Camo Cordura®\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eINTERIOR MATERIAL:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eECOPAK™ EPX Bright Orange 200 Denier Waterproof 100% recycled polyester components, 45° Blue CrossPly for added strength, 70 Denier ripstop backing\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLOSURE: 2\" AustriAlpin™ COBRA®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHANDLE: 1\" MIL-SPEC Webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSTRAPS: Closed-Cell Foam Technology padding wrapped in 2\" MIL-SPEC Webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZIPPERS: Easy to access Water-Repellent YKK AquaGuard® Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT: 3 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVOLUME: 18 Liter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/2021-Menace-Rogue-Camo_size-chart_600x600.jpg?v=1610559182\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEXTERIOR ADJUSTABLE POCKETS: Hold most bottles small + large\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5872\/files\/side_pocket_large.gif?v=1539286668\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eI need to go home now.

The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.carryology.com\/insights\/insights-1\/ballistic-nylon-vs-cordura-heavy-duty-durable-fabrics\/\" class=\"text-link\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e[ reference: carryology ]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYKK water repellent zippers let sweat and water water drops roll off like 'Poof!'

We rolled up our sleeves and got down to doing just that! (We're a bit competitive that way.) Many prototypes later and we're proud to announce a bag that not only incorporates our hardcore cyclist intern's suggestions, but also carries his name: The VerBockel rolltop backpack. The 28 liter water-repellent VerBockel MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon rolltop pack is made for serious adventure travel, all-weather commuting, and hauling gear. We built it versatile enough to pack for a camping trip, to be your daily driver or simply to haul groceries home. Pack it light and this is a simple and comfortable 'don't have to even know it's there' pack on your back. Need to pack it as a 'bug-out bag' packed to the hilt with 72 hours worth of heavy duty cargo? No problem.

The VerBockel includes a comfortable vented closed-cell foam back panel which helps to ventilate sweat away from your body and has MIL-SPEC haul handles \u0026amp; MOLLE system on both the sides and shoulder straps.

We added the Fire in a few strategic, subtle places on the inside and exterior pocket. Our team did this to give it some easy to see Badassery while not making it too heavy to carry on the daily. We doubled up our 2\" MIL-SPEC webbing for added durability on the shoulder straps resulting in an amazingly comfortable, longer lasting strap system. The inside has a closed-cell foam padded computer section with padding on the sides as well as the bottom. After all, who in the hell knows when you might drop this bad boy and who wants to worry about damaging their precious computer? We placed 2 pockets and a D ring for keys on the top of the computer section after studying many other brands had placed theirs oddly low and out of easy reach. One of the best things about this pack is it can be used as a deep, fully open cargo carrier due to it's carry handles. So you can put in everything from: Bike polo mallets, to grocery items, or hell even golf clubs for the range! Our designers just added a large exterior 'dump pocket' for quick storage. It has a large sized Water-Resistant \u003c\/span\u003eYKK AquaGuard® Zipper to keep your gear dry and safe during any mission.
