Design agency Lijmbach, Leeuw &Vormgeving appears to have taken inspiration from Star Wars and has created a backpack that resembles something the Storm Troopers might have worn. 'Solid Gray’ is a folding backpack that’s built to last.
Unlike normal soft material backpacks, Solid Gray stands up against harsh conditions. It is made from a single piece of copolymer, a material that gives the backpack an extremely durable, hard exterior.
Despite the sturdier exterior, it is still very lightweight. The folding bag gives a snug, comfortable fit against your back and the pack is water-resistant. It also allows for easy access into compartments and is the perfect size for a carry-on. It's an ideal bag for protecting expensive items, like your laptop computer.
