Kelty NYLON TOTE 2 M Tote Bag, 28L Capacity, Black, 2592343… Ещё

Description Product Introduction KELTY's classic tote bag has been updated with a more user-friendly design, including the lining and specifications. The fabric is made from INVISTA's 500D (denier) Cordura nylon. Nylon offers excellent tear strength and abrasion resistance, and is softer to the touch than polyester. In addition to the water-repellent properties of nylon, the polyurethane coating on the underside provides some water resistance, though not complete protection. The included shoulder strap allows for over-the-shoulder carrying. It features an interior pocket for small items and sleeve pockets on both sides of the exterior. Brand Introduction The history of KELTY can be seen as the evolution of the backpack itself. Today's backpacks, whether large or small, share several common features, such as a waist belt and back tension. This basic concept was invented by Dick Kelty over 50 years ago. The KELTY brand was founded in 1952 in Dick Kelty's Southern California home with a $500 loan. Kelty worked with an aluminum frame in the garage, welding machine in hand, while his wife Nina sewed away in the kitchen. An avid outdoorsman himself, Kelty refused to settle for products he wasn't satisfied with, and spent his days creating and improving them. But a turning point soon came. The unprecedented aluminum frame with divided nylon compartments featured in the catalog caught the attention of young people across America. This gave birth to a new culture of backpacking, and carrying the KELTY logo became a status symbol. The high level of perfection and functionality of the backpacks began to attract the attention of professional climbers, and many of America's historic achievements have been achieved with KELTY: the first ascent of Mount Everest by F. Unsoeld and F. Hornbein in 1963, the National Geographic Antarctic Expedition in 1966, the first ascent of K2 in 1975 and Cholatse in 1982, and the expedition to the highest peaks on all seven continents in 1983. In 1970, Eric Ryback (then 18 years old) became the first person to complete the entire Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), a 4,240km long-distance hiking trail that runs north-south along the US West Coast from the Mexican border to the Canadian border, in one season. His backpack was also a KELTY.
