Whether you live within the confines of a rainy city like Seattle or love a good outdoor excursion, a reliable weatherproof backpack is a great addition to a man’s everyday carry. With that said, too many backpacks that are weatherproof lack the style or design savvy for a man to rely on the pack for daily use.
The Black Ember Citadel Collection turns this idea on its head, as the packs on offer are durable and eminently customizable, thanks to the modular design. The Citadel is equipped with a basic modular pack and side handle, at which point you can begin adding your own modifications to make it the perfect pack for your everyday needs, and the options are quite impressive. From the pack’s 3D shoulder straps that effortlessly tuck away for a briefcase-style carry to top loader access that makes it easy to retrieve your wallet and similar valuables, the versatility of the Citadel gives you ultimate design control.
The basic pack also comes with all the expected features of a go-to pack, such as the suspended laptop sleeve, compression divider, and spacious storage pockets. However you customize the Citadel, the deep black matte finish is a standout aesthetic that pairs well with the minimalist pack designed with comfort, balance, and performance in mind.
