Urban Series Collection: Sleek And Minimalist Style To Elevate Your Everyday Carry (EDC) In 2024

At Vanquest, we listen to our customers' feedback and needs. Since our founding in 2011, we’ve received numerous requests for a line of bags and packs that combine effective organization with a more refined, non-tactical appearance.

We set forth to create the Urban Series with a sleek design and minimalist style to enhance your everyday carry lifestyle while seamlessly blending into home, office, and school settings. With modular customization options, these bags and packs are versatile companions for your urban adventures.

Whether you're a professional working in an office or a student attending classes, a sleek-looking backpack fits seamlessly into formal settings. Using a backpack for commuting gives you comfortable carry, keeps everyday carry (EDC) items organized, and protects your electronic devices while on the go.

For example, the ADDAX-18 and ADDAX-25 backpacks, are equipped with dedicated admin organization for convenient storage of your everyday items such as chargers, cables, and external hard drives. The main compartment, with its fully loop-lined interior, allows for customization using hook & loop/CCW accessories, making it easy to adapt the backpack to your specific needs. Additionally, these backpacks feature internal bottle pockets and padded rear tech sleeves for laptops and tablets. Rear grab handles double as luggage handle pass-throughs for when you're traveling abroad.

Along with a weather-resistant YKK AquaGuard zipper, a well-ventilated back panel, and shoulder straps for breathability and comfort, you'll have ample space for your electronic devices, documents, folders, and notebooks.

Cross-body sling bags give you enhanced security when commuting by public transportation or in crowded areas. You have easy, on-body access to your everyday essentials with hands-free convenience, whether you’re going to work, school, or traveling abroad. 

The DENDRITE-Small & DENDRITE-Large are the perfect companions for your daily errands with a high-visibility interior and elastic retention for small, everyday carry items. Inside there is a loop field for customizing with hook & loop accessories. A repositionable key tether with extra attachment points is provided and semi-transparent ToughMesh pockets give additional storage. The DENDRITE waist strap can be shoulder-carried for cross-body access, worn on the waist, or removed for direct attachment to a belt for waist carry.

The Urban Series wouldn’t be complete without a highly capable messenger bag. Many users prefer them because of their versatility for different uses from office, school, photo, video, or range. You can customize the organization with padded dividers and hook & loop accessories for more flexibility.

The GOFER-15 Messenger Bag is our Urban Series adaptation of the popular ENVOY-13 & ENVOY-17 messengers. These versatile messenger bags offer admin organization compartments for your small EDC items. The GOFER Messenger Bag comfortably accommodates a 15” laptop while providing ample space for books, folders, photography gear, or range equipment. Inside, the customizable high-visibility loop-lined interior, complete with two padded dividers, ensures easy organization and access. On the outside, you'll find two expandable bottle pockets for holding 32oz water bottles or umbrellas. Travelers will appreciate the rear loop-lined compartment for tablets or hook-and-loop accessory attachments, as well as the luggage handle pass-through for travel convenience.

At Vanquest, we know customization is key to a well-organized everyday carry. For the Urban Series, we wanted to keep modular expansion without the exterior MOLLE webbing. We achieved this by moving expansion to the inside with hook & loop accessories so you can customize as needed.

Creating small kits for your office, school or travel supplies helps you be organized for the day ahead. Our STICKY CUBES come in five different sizes (XS to XL), expanding in volume to store your essential items while easily attaching to any loop-lined surface.

But what about those often-used items that lack specific storage slots or pockets in your bag or pack? Our STICKY PANELS 2X3 and STICKY PANELS 2X7 offer the perfect solution. Attach cables, pens, flashlights, and other small items securely and conveniently. For maximizing unused space, the STICKY ADMIN POUCH 5X7 provides an instant zippered pocket with elastic retention slots for pens, markers, notepads, and more.

Finally, you can also assemble a few of your frequently used EDC kits using the PPM-SLIM all the way up to the EDCM-HUGE organizer pouch, and swap out different kits as needed to tailor your setup for the day ahead.

With the Urban Series, Vanquest combines thoughtful organization, uncompromising build quality, and modular expansion to create a sleek, non-tactical everyday carry experience. Say goodbye to the old notion that style and functionality can't coexist. Explore the Urban Series and seamlessly integrate your essentials into your everyday urban carry lifestyle.
