The Troubadour Elemental Collection is the brand's most technically advanced range of accessories to date that each keep comfort, quality and capability in mind to work well for commuters and travelers alike.
The various accessories were designed around the concept of over-engineered fabric and the idea of comfort actually getting better rather than worse over time. The accessories are crafted with the brand's custom, proprietary UHMWPE fabric that's lightweight yet inherently durable and resistant to everyday wear and water. The various bags are paired with straps and handles that are inspired by weighted running vests to maximize comfort, even in the face of long-haul wear.
The Troubadour Elemental Collection is available now with prices starting at $39.
