Purple, that hue that was popular in the ‘80s and ‘90s, is trending and making a major comeback in clothing, shoes, and even rucksacks. That’s why we’ve revamped our best sellers in daypacks, mini backpacks, laptop backpacks, small backpacks, and large backpacks, in a range of shades from dark purple to light, so you can add a little extra style to your adventures and daily routine.

Supreme functionality

All of our best-selling purple backpacks along with our new arrivals, are designed not only to last but to keep you organized in any situation. Whether you need a bag for the gym, a school backpack, or your go-to travel backpack for a long-term adventure, these packs have the features you can count on. Like our FlexVent suspension system in The Recon daypack, which is certified by the American Chiropractic Association, thanks to its articulated shoulder straps, rounded back panel, and soft-touch fabrics. You’ll stay hydrated with water bottle pockets, find everything with internal organization, and keep your items secure with anti-theft laptop compartments and pouches for keys and sunglasses. On and let’s not forget shoe compartments and straps for snowboards or skis for the ultimate adventure. These packs truly have you covered.

Built to last

It’s true that trends might come and go, but these purple backpacks are built to last. All of our packs, whether large backpacks, school bags, or travel bags, are constructed with durability in mind. Like our adventure-focused Slackpack 2.0 travel bag, which was updated during an Alaskan expedition by TNF athletes and is crafted from ballistic nylon. And all of our packs use fabrics that are abrasion-resistant and some are even water resistant to keep your stuff dry in any weather.

Unique colorways

What if you could Alpine climb while carrying one of the most advanced large backpacks out there — like the Spectre — in a fun color like trending ‘Peak’ dark purple? We think there’s no better way to leave your mark and conquer a mountain. With other hues like ‘Pamplona’ and ‘Graphite’ purple, these packs go the extra mile in a big way.
