Need a gift for the modern man who’s a little bit of a mountain goat and a little bit of a city slicker? Look no further than the Topo Designs Rover Pack Classic. This isn’t just a bag; it’s a trusty sidekick for the fella who needs to go from a board meeting to a bouldering session without missing a beat.





This backpack is the Swiss Army knife of daypacks, all wrapped up in a package so handsome it might just get more compliments than you. Its timeless silhouette is a nod to a simpler time, when things were built to last and weren’t festooned with a dozen unnecessary zippers. Speaking of which, the top flap, with its dual side-release buckles and a classic drawstring cinch, makes you feel like a rugged adventurer even if you’re just rummaging for your keys.



Don’t let the retro looks fool you, though. The Rover Pack Classic is tough as nails, thanks to its durable recycled nylon construction. It’s got a padded sleeve that’ll cradle a 16″ laptop with the tenderness of a doting parent, and pockets for everything from your water bottle to that mysterious assortment of charging cables we all carry. The $109 price tag is a small price to pay for a bag that’s equally at home at the trailhead as it is at the coffee shop. It’s the perfect gift for the guy who likes his gear to be as multi-talented as he (thinks he) is.
