Our Journeyman Backpack carries gear comfortably on the trail and is made with waxed Tin Cloth to protect your gear from wet weather. This tightly woven canvas duck has been thoroughly saturated with wax for water resistance. Our industrial-strength Rugged Twill on the back panel and base adds structure and durability. The padded shoulder straps are lined with Moleskin cotton for comfort and to minimize slipping. The straps are secured to the backpack with Bridle Leather that is strong enough for horse saddlery. The main compartment is accessed by a strong brass YKK zipper that extends more than halfway down the bag for easy access. An interior padded pocket fits laptops up to 15". The exterior pocket is expandable for increased capacity.

Leo O. ★★★★★

The waxed canvas already beaded up nicely during a light drizzle, keeping my gear completely dry. This is exactly what I needed for weekend hikes without worrying about sudden weather changes.

Daniel ★★★★★

I've been using this backpack for weekend hikes, and the waxed canvas shrugs off light rain like nothing. The material feels sturdy yet broken-in right out of the box.

Henry ★★★★★

The waxed canvas on this pack is doing exactly what it promised—I got caught in a downpour yesterday and everything inside stayed bone dry. It sits comfortably on my shoulders even when loaded with camera gear for a day of hiking.
