The Pangolian Bag is the Perfect Urban Backpack

Backpacks aren’t always cool, but they’re essential to get your stuff to work, especially if you work in an urban environment. The Pangolian Bag is challenging the idea that the backpack can’t be cool.

The makers of the Pangolian Bag created this apocalyptic accessory using upcycled inner tubes from trucks and attaching them together with a super rad looking nut. The sliding parts create a retractable shell. The underside of the Pangolian Bag forms to the shape of your back, making for an ultra-comfortable wear.
