Coyote X-Pac® Ocean Edition VX-21 Fabric Becomes Permanent Fixture in Peak Design’s Global Lineup of Bags

August 20, 2024

100% recycled and PFAS-free, the brand exclusive fabric meets Peak Design’s rigorous sustainability standards

San Francisco, CA (August 20, 2024) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – 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.

About Peak Design

Since 2010, Peak Design has been building innovative carry solutions with a simple overarching design directive: make the best things. The idea for our first product was born on a motorcycle trip through Southeast Asia and has since expanded to include a cross-functional ecosystem of bags, pouches, slings, straps, and clips. We’ve won applause along the way, but we’re most proud of the fact that we’re 100% crowdfunded and 100% employee-owned. We’ve raised $36 Million through 12 Kickstarter campaigns to become the world’s most successfully crowdfunded company. This allows Peak Design to stay investor- free and focused on the things that matter most: designing great products, fostering happy employees, and taking care of our customers and the natural environment.
