The first hour of a long hike — the landscape opens up around you, and on your back sits a sturdy yet softly cut hemp backpack that knows what it is built for. The large greenish-blue and mustard hemp backpack is at once practical for daily use and a conscious choice for those keeping their ecological footprint in mind.
The experience it offers
The hemp fabric is characteristically a bit rustic, and softens with daily use — almost moulding to the shape of the back over time. The 45×35×16 cm interior comfortably holds a weekend hike's full kit, or a full school day's gear: laptop, notebooks, a water bottle, a rain jacket, and a small change of clothes. The 0.506 kg own weight does not press down before the bag fills up.
Materials and character
The backpack is made from a combination of hemp, cotton and metal fittings. Hemp is a strong, natural fibre that is biodegradable, sustainable, and durable as a base material — together with the cotton lining, it is gentler on the items inside. The metal buckles and zippers provide the durability. The greenish-blue and mustard palette gives a nature-near yet playful feel — earthy, with a slight retro touch.
How to use it day to day
The strong, double shoulder strap distributes weight evenly across the back, making it a good choice for school, work, or a weekend hike. The multiple compartments help with organisation, and the durable zippers reassuringly secure the contents. The eco-friendly materials also support a conscious purchasing decision.
