Finding the work/life balance

Work hard and play hard? Mammut’s Seon series is built to keep up, with four backpacks that move seamlessly from work to workouts. Clean aesthetics help them blend into work environments, while separate compartments provide dedicated storage for work tools and gym gear or climbing equipment. Separate storage options for gear also makes the backpacks suited to short trips.The largest piece is the 35L Seon Cargo which can be carried as a pack or by two grab handles. The 30L Seon Courier features rolltop access to the main compartment, while the 26L Seon Transporter offers clamshell-style compartments for easy packing and gear retrieval. The smallest piece in the series is the 22L Seon Shuttle which includes a water-repellent compartment for valuables within its organization options.

Modular adaptability for work, travel and photography

Ever wished your carry could just do more? The Boundary Prima System aims to grant that wish with its modular design that handles multiple settings and uses, from work to travel and photography. The system includes the Prima Pack, the Verge Case, and the Fieldspace, each of which can be used separately or as a combined carry solution. The pack’s main compartment expands from 25L to 30L, with a central zipper for easy access and a separate compartment for a laptop and the Fieldspace. The Fieldspace is handy for organizing a range of tools and accessories, and docks magnetically in the Prima Pack for secure transport.

The Verge Case is accessible from the pack’s side pocket, and can be used to store camera gear in the main pack or used separately as a shoulder bag. The Verge Case can expand from 5L to 10L, and serves as a bag for EDC, photography use, or travel essentials. The system is crafted with water-resistant bluesign® approved fabric and includes magnetic buckles, a magnetic sternum strap and a magnetic keychain for fast and convenient use.
