Black Diamond Backpack Mandate

Inspired by vertical living but designed for everyday travel, the Mandate 28 bag combines the ruggedness of our hoist bags with a sleek, functional design. It's ideal for cleverly managing commutes to work, gym workouts and long-distance travel. The rugged, waterproof canvas exterior of its front panel protects against light precipitation and a variety of hazards, while its terminal design offers rapide easy access to gear. The laptop pocket is padded for added protection, and a zipped storage pocket safely holds small accessories. Fully padded waistband and shoulder straps help maintain comfort levels on marathon days, and heavy-duty top and front handles make it easy to grip.
