Topo Designs Ballistic Black Collection

Colorado-based Topo Designs has applied a stealthy, ballistic all-black treatment to its Klettersack, Daypack and Mini Mountain Bag models. With an exterior made predominately from a durable 1000D Cordura fabric and an inner liner made from a heavy-duty 18oz waterproof truck tarp, this collection of bags is designed to take on the demands of being a travel companion, workmate or pack mule. Featuring natural leather lash tabs for securing extra gear, as well as smooth YKK zippers made in America, these versatile carry-ons uphold the brand’s outdoor heritage. The Klettersack and Daypack measure in at 12″w x 19″h x 6″d, while the Mini Mountain Bag comes in a slightly more compact 15″w x 8″h x 5″d. Handmade at Topo Designs’ LEED Certified shop in Colorado, these backpacks range from $159-$189 USD over at Topo Designs’ site.
