A bag that makes carrying gear in wet weather plain sailing

Whether you do water-based outdoor activities or travel frequently in all sorts of weather, nothing puts a dampner on your fun faster than your gear getting a good drenching. Patagonia’s Stormfront® Roll Top Boat Bag aims to prevent such mishaps with a waterproof welded construction and plenty of space (47L) to accommodate day trips or adventures stretched over several days. If you’re happy with just enough organization to keep things handy but simple this bag should float your boat, with exterior and interior zipped pockets for smaller objects and exterior holders for larger items.

Timeless style for versatile daily use

Blend functional everyday carry with a generous helping of style and more than a dash of durability and you get Teddyfish, who are rocking a new navy and ivory selection of carry offerings that keep things stylish and understated with cotton canvas, vegetable-tanned leather and clean silhouettes that suit a variety of daily uses.

So could it be your dream bag too?
