Know before you buy
Yes, the TURTLE bag features a dedicated foam-padded compartment specifically designed to accommodate electronics up to 13 inches.
The bag includes a removable shoulder strap that allows you to transition from a traditional backpack carry to a side-slung shoulder bag. You can easily clip or unclip the strap depending on your preferred style for the day.
The bag is constructed from a combination of packcloth nylon and 1000 Denier Cordura, which are industrial-grade, water-resistant materials. It is built to withstand heavy daily use and is backed by an unlimited warranty.
The TURTLE bag is machine washable, making it easy to keep clean after outdoor use or daily travel. We recommend a gentle cycle to maintain the integrity of the fabric and padding.
The cinch-straps on the front pocket provide extra security for your smaller items, ensuring they stay tucked away and protected. They also allow you to compress the pocket slightly if you aren't carrying it at full capacity.
