Peak Design, the worldwide leader in carry solutions, is excited to introduce Coyote X-Pac VX-21 Ocean Edition fabric and colorway as a permanent purchasing option across 11 bags and pouches in Peak Design’s lauded Everyday and Travel lines. PFAS-free and constructed of 100% recycled fishing nets, the Coyote X-Pac VX-21 Ocean Edition shell fabric meets the highest standard in material sustainability and represents the first and only third-party shell material Peak Design has introduced as a purchasing option for its best-in-class bags.
Peak Design has historically relied on its proprietary Versa Shell canvas fabric to strike the perfect balance of durability, sustainability and aesthetics in its Everyday and Travel Line bags. However, an early 2024 collaboration with X-Pac–a brand and fabric whose origins exist within highly technical sail cloth–led to a limited edition run of Peak Design Coyote X-Pac Everyday and Travel Line bags. Customer praise for the Coyote X-Pac collaboration was instant, convincing Peak Design to explore ways to make the Coyote X-Pac fabric shell a permanent and exclusive purchasing option alongside Peak Design’s own Versa Shell.
Working hand-in-hand with X-Pac Peak Design ensured the sustainability of its newest fabric mirrored the rigorous standards set by Peak Design’s own Versa Shell. As a result, X-Pac introduced the Coyote colorway to their VX-21 Ocean Edition fabric, licensing the material/color combination exclusively to Peak Design. Manufactured in Putnam, CT, VX-21 Ocean Edition is composed of 100% recycled fishing nets and is PFAS-free. The material has a multilayer laminated construction that utilizes X-PLY, a post-consumer recycled polyester ripstop thread that is diamond stitched at 22° across the fabric. Coyote X-Pac VX-21 Ocean Edition fabric is not only aesthetically striking but has a superior hand feel worthy of a permanent place on 11 specially selected Peak Design Travel and Everyday line bags and pouches.
“We’ve always prided ourselves in developing all materials and hardware in-house,” said Peter Dering, Founder and CEO of Peak Design. “The permanent inclusion of Coyote X-Pac into our product line is a testament to the brilliant material development that X-Pac has done, and a strong nod to all legacy brands out there who strive to make their iconic products more sustainable,” Dering continued.
