The Urbn Mission backpack is so cool it doesn’t even use A’s, screw that vowel it is so 2018! It comes in a wide range of colours and materials, choose from Orange (for high visibility), Squall, Rincon, Woodrose, Night Sky, Ashcroft Camo (for blending into your surroundings), Garnet Shadow and R2R Olive. There aren’t many bags that can say they are skateboard friendly but the Urbn wants to let you roll to your destination and we are always a fan of anything that helps you keep more active. The prices vary by fabric, for example the Orange model, priced at £90 is made from 200D nylon, with polyester lightweight ripstop and a water-repellent finish, and the R2R Olive model, costing £105, is made from a tough 1005D nylon, plus cotton heavyweight Cordura canvas with a durable, water-repellent wax finish. This 23L backpack measures up at 19” x 11” x 7" and has a dedicated pocket that fits most 15" laptops (15.5" x 10"), there is also a separate tablet pocket that has a fleece lining to protect the screen from scratches and scuffs whilst on the move.
The 23L capacity makes it suitable for day trips, commuting or overnight stays, it provides easy access to all your gear and plenty of pockets to keep things organised. The interior zippered mesh pocket lets you see which bits you have stored in there, there is a zip pocket and web detail on the outside, two mesh side pockets and the adjustable web cargo straps which can be used to load up your skateboard, trekking poles, multipack bag of crisps, whatever you need. You can attach a light onto the cargo strap for extra visibility and the sternum strap gives you better stability whilst you are on public transport or riding a bike. The breathable shoulder straps and ergonomic back panel keep things comfortable, however you will still get warm on hot days, overall the Urbn is a trendy day pack that will keep your belongings safe and organised whilst providing you with a bit of urban style when you are out and about. RRP £65 for woodrose, £75 for orange, rincon, night sky, ashcroft camo and garnet, £85 for squall and £90 for R2R Olive.
