Peak Design introduces eco-friendly Coyote X-Pac® collection

Peak Design introduces eco-friendly Coyote X-Pac® collection

Transcontinenta UK Ltd, distributor for Peak Design in the UK, and Ireland, is excited to introduce a new fabric and colourway to the Everyday and Travel Bags lines: Peak Design Coyote X-Pac®. This new fabric and colour was originally launched through a limited edition collaboration with Huckberry, but the users and the Peak Design team loved it so much that it is now available in 11 popular bags.

Peak Design Coyote X-Pac® uses eco-friendly and PFAS-free materials

Peak Design worked with X-Pac® to source a more eco-friendly version of their fabric. They settled on one of X-Pac®'s brand-new materials, called X-Pac® VX-21 Ocean Edition, that meets Peak Design's sustainability benchmarks of using recycled, PFAS-free content. The X-Pac® VX-21 Ocean Edition fabric is made in America and has an outer shell made from 100% recycled fishing nets. It has also very similar durability, weatherproofing, and sustainability profiles as Peak Design's proprietary Versa Shell™ fabric, which was currently used for all Peak design bags.

This particular fabric and colour combination, Coyote X-Pac® VX-21 Ocean Edition, will be exclusive to Peak Design bags until 2025! No other bag in the world will carry this fabric during that time. Of course, all new Peak Design Coyote products are also 'Climate Neutral' and 'B-Corp' certified, Peak Design is also a member of 1% for the planet and supports the Conservation Alliance.

Coyote X-Pac® material specifications

The outer shell of all Peak Design Coyote X-Pac® bags share the same unique features:

  • Multi-layer laminated construction
  • Outer layer made from 100% recycled nylon fishing nets
  • Inner layer is solution dyed recycled poly
  • In between is a 22° diamond patterned post-consumer recycled 50D polyester yarn called X-PLY®.
  • PFAS free. Uses C0 DWR, a water-repellent treatment that is a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional DWR treatments.

The Peak Design Coyote X-Pac® collection 

The new Peak Design Coyote X-Pac® collection consists of 11 popular and proven Peak Design products, including the Everyday Backpack 20L and 30L V2, the Travel Duffel 35L and 50L, Travel Backpack 45L, Everyday Sling 3L and 6L V2 and the Wash Pouch (Small) and Tech Pouch (Small). Earlier this year also the Coyote coloured editions of the Peak Design Slide, Slide Lite, Leash, and Cuff were added to the existing range of camera straps.

Prices and availability

Explore the new Coyote X-Pac® collection at Peak Design dealers in the UK and Ireland. Due to the premium nature of the X-Pac® material, prices for this collection are slightly higher than the same product in the standard colourways.
