Got this Sidewinder Apparel number up for grabs - it really is the bollocks of a rucksack.
Hand made entirely in the UK, the straps and trimmings are heavy dark brown leather, it took a while for the strap in the opening flap to show any signs of wear. It is made with heavy duty yellow canvas, and lined with a beautiful red cotton. There is a thick drawstring that fastens the opening at the top of the bag, with a leather tab. I've used this bag a bit so it does have marks on it, that will most likely come off with a sponge and hot water, but to be honest it's looking even better than when new (when I met Martin, the guy who makes them, he had a well-used yellow rucksack and that swayed me to get that colour), and it remains a nigh-on bulletproof bit of kit. Gets loads of compliments if that's your thing, a truly limited edition piece of British craftwork, I liked it so much I actually have two.
RRP is £129
Any Q's just ask.
£45 delivered, if it doesn't fetch that I'll just keep it.
