There are plenty of companies that produce fine looking backpacks, but few of them do it with the attention to detail and singular focus that Rapha uses. Rapha designs products, like this water-resistant Cordura backpack, specifically with the cyclist in mind. What makes this $200+ backpack better than your old-school Jansport? A lot things. The backpack is made from water-resistant Cordura fabric and there are padded panels that follow the curve of your spine for extra stability. There’s a zipped compartment with a high-visibility pink rain cover, and reflective dots on the side panels, base and straps. It’s also kitted out with a Tricot-lined sunglasses pocket, padded laptop compartment and an outer key compartment. In other words, it’s got just about everything you could possibly want in a cycling backpack.
