The roll-top backpack »Ryan« is a puristic leather daypack with a 15-inch laptop compartment. This trendy roll-top look is inspired by the backpacks worn by bicycle couriers that have been around since the 1990s in the world's major cities. The highlight is that these backpacks are very variable in size and can be rolled up or down depending on the contents. »Ryan« is a charming mix of modernity and tradition. Rough soul, soft core.
The leather backpack for men and women is closed with a zipper at the top and can be rolled up at the top, depending on the filling volume. The rolled edge is fixed at the top with a leather strap. The leather bicycle backpack has two zippered compartments on the outside. One at the front and one on the side. Inside, the leather backpack has a padded 15" laptop compartment and another zippered compartment for valuables. The shoulder straps are adjustable in length.
The backpack »Ryan« is made almost entirely by hand. The production of a single bag takes countless hours. Only natural and sustainable materials are used. All wear points are covered with leather on the outside. All stress points are additionally reinforced. The back of the leather backpack is padded and elegantly quilted in "diamond stitch". Our DRAKENSBERG signature element.

material

Full grain buffalo leather
During the British era in India, traditional bag making flourished. The fusion of British designs with Indian craftsmanship resulted in high-quality leather bags made from robust, vegetable-tanned buffalo leather, also known as hunter leather, which is known for its distinctive grain. In our collection we use exactly this special material to create a high-quality and authentic look. The durable Hunter leather develops a beautiful patina over time, which gives each bag a unique and personal touch.

Pure cotton lining
Our lining fabric is made from pure cotton twill, a soft and natural material. For the Outlaw collection, we have developed an inspiring signature print featuring old nautical charts that gives each piece a special touch. This high-quality cotton lining not only offers comfort, but also a stylish addition to our handmade bags.

The value of a good trip
The story behind the bags
We are Daniel and Christoph and we are living our dream. Although we are both completely different, we share a great passion: traveling. We founded the DRAKENSBERG label because we want to inspire people to recognize the true value of travel and to strive for it. To see the journey as a destination and to grow from it. Because we believe that a good trip can change your whole life. The trip that changed our lives took us across South Africa almost 20 years ago. When we wanted to drive from Cape Town to the Drakensberg. But we never got there.
