Foam-lined for structure and protection
Handcrafted in the UK with waterproof fabrics and a 25-year Alpine Bond

Performance on the Trail
Whether you’re riding gravel loops, long forest tracks or just escaping for the afternoon, Gravel Bag gives you secure, easy-access storage at the bars. The top-loading roll closure lets you grab food or layers without unpacking everything, while its flexible shape adapts to bulkier items like jackets or compact tents. Multiple riders mention ditching their backpack for day rides thanks to the surprisingly spacious main compartment.

Mesh side pockets stash on-the-go essentials, and the elastic front cord gives you even more room for damp jackets or stash-and-dash buys.

Built to Last
Made from X11 waterproof X-Pac® fabric with a 100% organic cotton face and recycled polyester backing, Gravel Bag shrugs off all but the heaviest rain. A water-resistant YKK AquaGuard® zip, 500D Cordura® base and foam lining protect your kit and help the bag hold its shape. It’s designed, stitched and built to last by our Nottingham factory team — and covered by our 25-year Alpine Bond.

Lower Impact
The X11 3-layer laminate uses organic and recycled materials to reduce environmental cost without compromising on performance. Gravel Bag is free from PFCs, made in the UK, and built for a long life of adventure.

Water Protection Tip
Although the outer fabric is waterproof, the seams aren’t taped. For valuables or electronics, we recommend packing them inside a dry bag.

Reducing our carbon footprint

We are carbon neutral under PAS2060 and offset our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 operations and transport emissions. We recognise that offsetting is not part of the solution but a point to pass through on a journey to Net Zero. Carbon Neutral is just a step in that journey.

We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.
