Know before you buy
The fold-over top allows you to adjust the volume of the main compartment based on how much you are carrying. It provides extra room for bulkier items when expanded or a more streamlined, compact profile when folded down.
The PVC-coated fabric is highly water-resistant, meaning it will effectively protect your belongings from rain and spills. While it is durable and abrasion-resistant, it is not fully submersible, so it should not be treated as a waterproof dry bag.
The Delve backpack is designed with body-close compartments and hidden zipper profiles, which make it difficult for others to access your belongings while you are wearing the bag. Additionally, the YKK zippers are lockable, providing an extra layer of security for your valuables.
Yes, the backpack includes a removable laser-cut metal dog tag with a leather patch. You can easily detach it if you prefer a cleaner aesthetic or if you wish to swap it out for a different accessory.
Yes, this backpack is backed by the Briggs & Riley Lifetime Limited Warranty. This covers functional repairs, including issues with zippers, fabric, and hardware, for the life of the product.
Its minimalist aesthetic and durable construction make it versatile enough for both daily commutes and short overnight trips. The 3.2-pound weight is substantial enough to feel high-quality without being overly heavy for everyday use.
