At the top ofthe sleeve,we includea hook & loop retention strap to hold the bladder upright and hose portsfor easy routing onto shoulder straps.

Internal water bottle storage for a sleek, low - profile backpack
Sometimes, you may want to carry containers and bottles inside your backpack.This helps maintain the bag’s sleek, low-profile design while protecting yourbottles from loss or damage. Our Urban Seriesbags offer a school-and office-friendly style. Models like the ADDAX-18 and ADDAX-25 backpacks each featuretwo bottle pockets located in the main compartment.
Both internal mesh pockets collapse, and but to close when not in use,with elastic retention to keep your bottle or items upright in place. These pockets willfit bottles up to 3.5” in diameter and double as extra mesh storage pockets.
Side water bottle carry for messenger and sling bags.
Having easily accessible side pockets for drinks or stashing a small organizer pouch is a helpful feature on your daily carry messenger & sling bags. We designed two different styles of side bottle pockets: one for the ENVOY-13,ENVOY-17 and MOBIUS 2.0 plus one for the GOFER-15 messenger bags.These external pockets all expand to fit bottles from 3” to 3.5” diameterand keep a low profile when not in use.
The difference lies in how they expand the space to store a bottle. The ENVOY & MOBIUS use a zipper with gusseted fabric to expand the pocket during use, whilethe GOFER has 4-way stretch fabric that conforms to a bottle or oddly shaped item and naturally sits flat when not in use. Either one provides convenient access to drinks and a useful gear stashfor your carrying solution.
