Know before you buy
With a 7.35-liter capacity, this bag is designed for your daily basics. It comfortably holds a tablet, a notebook, a water bottle, and your phone, keys, and wallet.
The internal sleeve is designed for a tablet or a small e-reader. It will not accommodate a standard-sized laptop, so please check your device dimensions against the 12.6-inch height of the bag.
The bag features a water-resistant coating that protects your belongings during light rain or drizzle. While it is durable, it is not fully waterproof, so it is best to avoid submerging it or exposing it to heavy, prolonged downpours.
Yes, the rPET nylon is quite low-maintenance. Because of its smooth, glossy finish, you can typically wipe away surface dirt or spills with a damp cloth.
Despite its durable construction, the Bantry B has a softened finish that makes it comfortable to carry against your back. It maintains its shape well while feeling flexible rather than rigid.
