News: ATD1 Backpack

0

Sometimes we need a backpack for work, other times for a weekend away.  Sometimes we need a gym backpack, and others a carry-on for a business trip.  Ideally though, we would get all of that, and more, from just the one backpack!

ATD1 Backpack

Italian softgoods design company, Attitude Supply, have crafted the ATD1 to suit all of our needs, maintaining an understated minimalist design whilst remaining functional for travellers and every type of trip!

Features

From every angle, it is apparent that the ATD1 has been designed by someone who has spent much of their time travelling! As the inclusion of so many features has come about from the need to have them and not just there for the sake of it!

A slightly tapered shape provides, not only better weight distribution when worn, but makes better use of the internal space with wider access from the top of the main compartment.

The roll top provides a weather-proof seal to the backpack and conceals any unused part of the bag when not in use.  The ATD1 can expand both outward and upwards to take the basic storage capacity from 30l up to a maximum of 50l internal storage space!

Most zip openings are either hidden or hard to access by others when being worn.  This adds a level of protection from pickpockets in those busy cities!

Creator and designer Michele Fasano wanted a minimalist bag and found that packing light was the solution. “Once the packing list is trimmed down, packing smarter is achievable with ATD1 through versatile carry goods with well thought out pocketing, clever access and a spacious main compartment with flexible volume.” ~ Attitude Supply

The ATD1 Backpack has three storage areas.  A top ‘pouch’ section for smaller items and contains a key leash and pen holders.  The main storage area has adjustable expandable side straps along with the roll top for maximum storage.  And finally the back panel has a padded sleeve for you laptop or tablet devices.

The detail is in the design here.  The back panel has a separate opening to the main storage compartment, so removing your electrical devices when passing though an airport does not involve going through all your belongings!
