Know before you buy
The proprietary body fabric is moisture-resistant, meaning it will protect your belongings from light rain and splashes. However, it is not fully waterproof, so it should not be submerged or exposed to heavy, prolonged downpours.
The Kinzie Street 2.0 Large Backpack weighs 2.7 lbs. This weight is primarily due to the high-quality, durable materials and the inclusion of genuine leather accents.
The YKK RC zippers are designed so that if the teeth ever become misaligned or separate, you can simply zip the slider back and forth to realign them. This ensures the zipper remains functional even after heavy use.
With dimensions of 12 x 8 x 18 inches, this backpack is generally compact enough to fit under the seat in front of you on most commercial flights, though it may be a tight fit on smaller regional aircraft.
Briggs & Riley offers a comprehensive lifetime warranty that covers functional damage to the bag, including zippers, handles, and wheels. It is designed to ensure the product remains in working order for the life of the bag.
