The backpack redefined

Hands down the most unique looking bag we’ve seen in a very long time (some may say it’s the most unique looking bag ever), the Pangolin by Cyclus explores nature-inspired design to create a superior and eye-catching backpack.

Made for the rebel, maverick biker, the Pangolin is great for wearing while riding. Not only does store all your gadgets and essentials, it can even hold your bike-helmet, given its unique hemispherical shape. Made entirely from recycled tire tubes (another hat tip to the biker as well as the environment), the bag’s aesthetic is undoubtedly the most eye-catching we’ve seen (so much so that it got featured in an X-Men movie). It even opens up like a pivoted shutter as the armadillo-style bands slide one under each other to open up. Definitely be prepared for the attention you’ll get with the Pangolin backpack!
