Why you'll fall in love with it
A back-panel exterior pocket for quick access and secure storage of your laptop. The pocket is separated from the main compartment of the backpack.
It holds firmly, so no one can get into your backpack on public transport. With the right grip, though, you can open it very quickly and easily with one hand.
13 – 17 l
Adapts to how much you're carrying.
Every piece is made with care and precision in our Zlín atelier or in two specialized Czech workshops.
A high-quality base and straps made from leather built to last.
Depending on the model, the body of the backpack is made from highly durable Cordura or Kortexin. Both materials, along with the water-resistant zippers, protect your belongings from the rain.
Maximum comfort even on longer carries.
What fits inside the backpack

FAQ – Manta Backpack
For people who need a larger backpack but don't want to look like tourists.
With 17–20 liters of capacity, it holds a laptop, documents, a sweater, and your groceries. It works with a suit and with casual outfits alike. It's carried by managers, entrepreneurs, architects, and creatives—people whose work depends on a strong first impression.
A typical workday and then some:
- Laptop up to 16"
- A4 documents
- A sweater or hoodie
- A small grocery run on the way home from work
- Water bottle
- Wallet, phone, keys
The main compartment holds 17–20 liters with no unnecessary dividers—just 2 smaller pockets for chargers and small items. And thanks to the expandable top section, you gain another 4 liters.
The MANTA is a part-leather backpack—it combines a durable technical fabric with Italian full-grain leather on the straps, base, and trim. The fabric depends on the color:
- Cordura®—ALL BLACK, BEIGE, BEIGE CARAMEL, LIGHT GREEN, LIGHT BLUE
- Kortexin®—NAVY BLUE, OLIVE GREEN
- Triplex—SALT AND PEPPER (a three-layer natural material)
All of these materials are exceptionally durable and water-resistant.
From the outside, without opening the backpack.
The laptop pocket is on the back panel and opens from the outside—you don't have to take the backpack off or open the main compartment. Just unfasten the Fidlock buckle with one hand, unzip the water-resistant SHZ zipper, and slide your laptop out.
The pocket fits a laptop up to 16" and protects it even in the rain.
Yes. Cordura®, Kortexin®, and Triplex are all water-resistant materials.
The laptop pocket has a water-resistant SHZ zipper, and the front pocket has a waterproof YKK zipper. The backpack handles everyday rain without a problem.
For a downpour or a longer stretch in the rain, we recommend a rain cover—the backpack isn't designed to be submerged in water.
950 grams empty.
Given the 17–20 liter capacity and the leather detailing, that's a reasonable weight. During all-day wear, you'll barely notice the difference compared to lighter backpacks.
All variants share the same cut, capacity, and features. They differ in color and material:
- Cordura® (ALL BLACK, BEIGE, LIGHT GREEN, LIGHT BLUE)—4,990 CZK
- Kortexin® (NAVY BLUE, OLIVE GREEN)—4,990 CZK
- Triplex (SALT AND PEPPER)—4,990 CZK
- BEIGE CARAMEL—5,590 CZK—has full-leather shoulder straps (the others have leather + cotton straps)
