Rickshaw Bagworks Sutro Backpacks

Sewn by hand in San Francisco, the Sutro backpack gets its name from the iconic Sutro communications tower, which sits near the top of Twin Peaks in the heart of San Francisco. Minimalist by design, the bag's open interior is easy to load from the top and can accommodate tall items like poster tubes or a baguette. It’s also got a padded compartment inside to safely hold your laptop (up to 15"). The side zipper offers convenient access to a water bottle or other items packed into the bottom of your bag. For smaller items, use the zippered organizational pocket. Made from laser-cut waterproof xPac material with splash-proof YKK zippers and a nylon packcloth interior, the Sutro is durable and weather resistant, yet incredibly lightweight. Rounding out the pack are adjustable shoulder straps, sternum strap, padded back and bottom, and bike light loops.

Based in San Francisco’s Dogpatch district, Rickshaw designs and manufactures a wide range of bags, packs, briefcases, and more by hand in its own sewing factory. Founded in 2007, Rickshaw has established itself as one of San Francisco's leading bag makers. Each of its products is inspired by a sense of urban mobility, perhaps because of the company’s location. The result is a solid collection of EDC accessories distinguished by simple, functional design and made from high-quality materials.
