The BRAVO 18 is a culmination of the vision that a tote’s value comes from its versatility and simplicity.
The 18-liter BRAVO 18 makes those two traits a priority based around a practical, multi-purpose, minimalist carry system.
One of our prototype programs in recent years was the BRAVO 18, a multi-function bag that’s meant to be as simple and as versatile as possible. With a lot of input, we’ve created the final version of the BRAVO 18 and it’s now available in a full production model.
The BRAVO 18 incorporates C3 Tech®, our proprietary and lightweight tri-layered laminated fabric providing a balanced blend of durability and water-repellency. At C3 Tech's core is a 500-denier nylon CORDURA® fabric for excellent insurance from fading, abrasion, rot, and mildew. The inner layer is a thin TPU white coating for visibility and water resistance, while the top layer is lightly coated in clear TPU to enhance toughness and reinforce protection from the elements. This fusion of material technologies in the BRAVO 18 strikes an essential balance of light weight, UV, dirt, and moisture proofing, along with extreme abrasion resistance.
Built to customize, the BRAVO 18 has four different ways to comfortably carry it thanks to its detachable straps. They allow the BRAVO 18 to function as a backpack, cross-body sling, shoulder bag, or a tote. There are also two vertical, water-resistant YKK® Aquaguard® zippers; one allows side access to the BRAVO 18 main compartment and the other opens to access an inset, side-slip pocket. The over-top hook covers the bag after it’s cinched closed to further protect valuable contents held inside, and the cinch can also be tucked inside to prevent snagging.
Every detail has been meticulously engineered for the modern explorer and even the little things were taken into account on the BRAVO 18. Featuring an integrated AirTag® pouch for smart tracking and exterior logos crafted from 50% reflective TPU for enhanced visibility, this bag is as much about safety as it is about style. The BRAVO 18 is available in three eye-catching colors: Pomegranate, Birch, and Black.
