Know before you buy
The Vista Skip is designed primarily for daily essentials and documents. While it features an internal document compartment, it does not include a dedicated, padded laptop sleeve, so you would need a separate protective case if carrying a computer.
The Lite Back System is optimized for light to medium loads. It uses ergonomic back cushions and 3D Airmesh lining to distribute weight evenly and promote airflow, keeping you comfortable during short to moderate walks.
Yes, the bag is constructed from durable 225 den polyester with a RipStop structure, which is designed to resist tears. It also features a PFC-free coating that makes the surface water and dirt repellent, providing good protection in light weather.
The three external stretch pockets are ideal for items you need to access quickly, such as a water bottle, umbrella, or transit pass. Because they are stretchy, they can accommodate various shapes while keeping the bag's profile slim when empty.
With its athletic V-cut design and ergonomic cushions, the Vista Skip is built to sit comfortably on the back. Its compact dimensions of 16.5 inches in height make it a versatile choice for a wide range of body types.
