78 Retina Everyday Backpack

Strong Polyamides

Polyamide (Nylon) is a synthetic fiber creating extraordinarily strong and versatile fabrics. Levitend® are the fabrics based on polyamides that we use for apparel. Retina® fabrics are based on polyamides but geared toward use in backpacks which places different requirements on the fabric.

The polyamides we use are derived from both recycled, bio-feedstock and virgin sources.
