HOW WE STARTED
OUR STORY
It all started in India, way back in 1993. The world was in recession and decent jobs were hard to come by. So, passport in hand travellers cheques signed and a giant bag on my back off I went. The trip was life changing but the bag sucked (to put it bluntly).
It took three trips to India to finally crack the bag gate. Fed up of lugging giant impractical bags around the world I downsized to hand luggage and never looked back. Travelling light was truly liberating. Plus saving all that time at check in meant extra time for a pre flight beer
It was one of the bleakest moments in travelling history: the day the airlines set carry on baggage restrictions Paying to check in a bag Faffing around with rulers and tape measures comparing different airlines hand luggage rules No thank you.
The need for a practical reliable cabin bag was greater than ever.
My dream was simple or so I thought. A lightweight backpack with zippers that is actually locked durable enough for the rigours of travelling and small enough to keep by my side.
But after scouring the shops in the UK and Asia I quickly realised that an adventure proof cabin sized backpack just didn’t exist.
So I decided to make one myself.
