Accessories label JanSport introduces its new Hatchet series of backpacks created specifically for an urban city environment. The label believes that a backpack should not only deliver aesthetics, but also functional performance. The new range of bags affirms this ethos and it stemmed from the realization that most people need a backpack that performs in city settings more than the demand for it in the great outdoors. The Hatchet range also combats the issue of lack of space in backpacks, so it features a safe compartment for a laptop, a dual water bottle pocket and organizing panel to separate stationary from electronics.
The design also infuses pockets on the inside and outside of the bag, enclosed with zippers. Some of the standout bags from the new series include the Grey Mark Techleisure, the Black Dor Matrix, and the Canvas Surplus Camo. The range is now available to shop online at JanSport and select retail locations.
