Ortlieb Vario PS Pannier Backpack

The pannier-backpack or the backpack-pannier bag? Whichever way you like, the smaller version of the Vario is a backpack and pannier in one – just likes it larger counterpart. One side is fitted with one of our tried and proven Quick-Lock fastening systems, while the other has a comfortable and ergonomic back carrying system. The feature known as the Flap covers whichever side is not in use at any particular time. Simply flipping over the Flap is all it takes to transform this smart hybrid. An integrated pocket in the flap provides an additional option for safely stowing small items of equipment such as a smartphone, keys or wallet. And it goes without saying that the smaller version of the Vario is waterproof and produced sustainably in Germany.
