Checking in with the Marlondo Backpack 1.5 Years Later

Posted by Tim McWhorter on

Before we debuted the Marlondo Backpack in early 2015, we made a few prototypes to test out the design and durability.  We put this particular backpack through the wringer - taking it on tons of weekend trips, stuffing it in motorcycle panniers, hauling it on a three week trip across Europe, and essentially giving it a thorough beating.
