Blue Habitat Commuter Backpack

The Commuter Backpack redefines what a backpack can be, with a slim-profile design that makes commuting simple. The exterior is constructed with 300D Repreve® Our Ocean™ material made from ocean-bound plastic bottles collected within 30 miles (50 km) of waterways or coastal areas. The 210D RPET interior has a padded 15” laptop compartment, dedicated 10” tablet pocket, and an elastic strap organizer, offering spaces for your tech essentials. 

Congratulations to a few of our contest winners!
