zipper backpack
33cm wide x 37cm tall x 8cm deep (apprx 550 grams)
The zipper backpack is a more casual style backpack as it has a flat base like our shoulderbags and a slight taper which makes it great for smaller backs.
It is also a little bit taller than the A4 shoulderbag which makes it perfect for carrying a 13" laptop like a Macbook or Macbook Air.
We have also added a grab handle in-between the shoulder straps to make it easier to carry when not being worn on your back.
