Code of Bell X-Type Backpack

Details

The X-TYPE (pronounced cross-type) is a true everyday backpack capable for the city to the outdoors, 7 days a week. Compact in size for daily use, yet Code of Bell’s signature expandable front compartment provides for that added space when needed for a weekend getaway to the outdoor trails.

In addition, X-TYPE has countless pockets to store and organise your carry essentials for any occasion. And the clam-shell opening allows for easy access/packing.

And to further push towards a more sustainable design philosophy, X-TYPE will be Code of Bell’s first to incorporate the use of ECOPAK fabric, replacing the previous X-Pac material for the front compartment. This is paired with the tried and tested Cordura fabric for the main body, which has also been upgraded to a recycled nylon.

ECOPAK features a similar diamond-shaped pattern like the X-Pac. But, it is the worlds only durable and waterproof fabric made from 100% recycled polyester fibre and film. And a PFC-free (C0) DWR coating is used, which is more environmentally friendlier than traditional water repellent coatings. And ECOPAK fabric lasts longer, absorbs 80% less moisture, and has better UV resistance and colour retention than traditional laminated nylon.

Please note, the video and photos shown for the X-TYPE was taken based on a pre-production sample using the previous X-Pac fabric.
