Description

The Messenger 12 combines the utility of a compact reusable bag, with the comfort of a designer messenger bag.

The Messenger12 rePETe™ un-stuffs into a full-size messenger pack, featuring two separate zipper pockets, flexible lycra bottle pockets, an adjustable strap, and a sleek magnetized closure system.
This sophisticated urban messenger bag is made of 85% recycled content and is the first of its kind.
The Messenger12 rePETe™ is made of lightweight recycled PET ripstop fabric and features an integrated zipper pouch.
The Messenger12 rePETe™ competes head-to-head with standard messenger-style packs, which do not offer the convenience of a pouch-able pack nor the sustainability of recycled material.
The Messenger12 also has loops to attach to the new waste strap accessory (sold separately) for added support and stabilization. What is rePETe™?

Colors:
Onyx
Brownstone

Uses:
The Messenger12 rePETe™ is ideal for the bike commuter who takes spontaneous detours to the market, or for the world traveler who collects unplanned souvenirs.
