Rockness Backpack | Scout Taupe

The Rockness backpack was inspired by those fantastic frame backpacks of the early 20th century that were so popular with mountaineers, especially those Nordic explorers.

The multi-strap system and tubular powder-coated steel frame keep all your expedition essentials securely supported from the 2inch wide shoulder straps, padded with English bovine suede and the swiss woven soft webbing strap that create a cushion against your lower back allowing air to flow in between the body of the bag and your back.

• 3 external pockets (Each allowing for an ample supply of Kendal mint cake.)
  
• Internal slip pocket (with ample room for an OS map and your current penguin paper back.)
  
• Internal leather zip pocket. For your more precious essentials.
  
• English woven drawstring closure. (which creates a generous capacity easily allowing for your wax-cotton over-trousers, balaclava, and other overly precautious garments.)
  
• Unique update of the classic frame system.
  
• Fully adjustable straps
  
• Top grab handle
  
• Italian vegetable tanned leather trim.
  
• Irish woven linen lining.
  

Care for Your Bag

A bit of hide food or simple neutral leather polish will go a long way to keep the leather clean and supple. 

Portamus bags cannot be washed or dry-cleaned, but can be sponged gently with a soap-free damp cloth. Always allow the item to dry thoroughly after use, in a cool, airy environment. Please don’t dry on a radiator; the leather will not thankyou. Reproofing wax cotton bags will maintain the waterproof qualities and extend your bag’s life.
