Handmade by their own team in their UK factory on the edge of the Peak District. Only selling due to the fact that it’s not getting the use it deserves.

These are no longer produced by Alpkit but cost north of £100 new!

Theres a number of useful features. The main compartment has a padded divider which neatly fits a 13-inch laptop or an A4 notepad, and there are two more organiser pockets for dividing your bits n pieces, including a key clip.

The back of the Alleycat also has a zipped security pocket which is hidden against your body, and a special sleeve for slotting over suitcase drag-handles when you’re charging through airports.

If you do use your Alleycat for cycle commute cool, there’s a Hypalon attachment point on the back for small bike safety lights and an easy-access water bottle holster. Waxed cotton is a natural, hard-wearing material with a high degree of water resistance.
