A class of its own.

The "Arthur" backpack is the perfect companion for digital nomads, commuters, and everyday adventurers. It combines authentic vintage charm with modern functionality – made from robust canvas and high-quality buffalo leather. Whether in the office, on the go, or traveling – this backpack masters every day with style and structure.

Electronics compartment at the front

On the front is a spacious gadget compartment, specially designed for your tech accessories. Three open compartments and several loops ensure perfect organization – for AirPods, chargers, cables, mouse, USB sticks or pens like the Apple Pencil. This keeps everything within easy reach where you need it.

Padded laptop compartment

The back of the backpack can be fully opened, allowing direct access to the padded laptop compartment. It offers secure protection for devices up to 16 inches – ideal for the modern working day and for anyone who wants to stay productive on the go.

Ideal travel companion

The all-around zipper allows the backpack to be opened wide – similar to a suitcase. This makes packing easier and ensures a perfect overview on the go. With its compact dimensions, "Arthur" complies with IATA hand luggage regulations and is therefore ideal for air travel. A reliable partner for business trips, weekend tours or the daily commute to the office.

Weatherproof with lotus effect

Rain, splashes, or wet streets – the "Arthur" backpack is prepared for any weather. The robust canvas material is treated with a natural, water-repellent impregnation and ensures that water simply beads off – according to the principle of the lotus effect. This keeps the contents reliably dry, even if the weather isn't cooperating.

Our story

We are Daniel and Christoph – two very different people with a shared passion: traveling. With DRAKENSBERG, we want to inspire people to discover the true value of being on the road: to see the journey as the destination and to grow from it. Because we believe that a good journey can change a life. Our own journey began almost 20 years ago when we set off by car from Cape Town to the Drakensberg – and yet never arrived.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the “Arthur” backpack suitable for everyday business use?

Is the canvas backpack »Arthur« waterproof or water-repellent?

The "Arthur" business backpack is made of high-quality canvas cotton fabric manufactured in Germany. Thanks to modern lotus impregnation, the fabric is water-repellent - so a short rain shower won't bother the backpack.

Can I take the rolltop backpack »Arthur« on the plane as hand luggage?

Yes, the business backpack »Arthur« is IATA compliant and can be taken on the plane as hand luggage. With its well thought-out dimensions, it meets the hand luggage requirements of most airlines.

How can I clean and care for my backpack »Arthur«?

The vintage look of the backpack is meant to show signs of wear. However, if you still want to clean it, we recommend the following steps:

1. Remove dust and dirt particles with a brush or a handheld vacuum cleaner.

2. Dab stains with a damp cloth and gently rub them out. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can help.

3. Regularly care for the leather with a suitable care product (e.g. beeswax or carnauba wax), but avoid the canvas to prevent stains.

4. If the lotus effect (impregnation) weakens somewhat after a few years, you can always improve the water resistance of your backpack with a colorless impregnation spray (e.g. Imprägnol).
