    Day Pack Original, Compact

    The majority of our materials are made from recycled PET bottles. We use a PFC-free, environmentally friendly water-repellency coating on our fabrics. 

    The difference between our fabrics is mainly in the look and feel. Our first fabric (Black and Sand variants) has a rather natural, canvas-like look. It feels thinner.

    In the Sleek Black variant, the fabric has a smooth look. It feels a little thicker and rubbery.

    The Sleek Black is a little easier to clean due to its smooth texture and water rolls off more easily - on the other hand, it is more prone to superficial scratches and dents or cuts, which remain visible in the long term on such smooth fabrics.

    As far as protecting the contents of the backpack from moisture is concerned, there is no difference between the two versions, as both fabrics are waterproof. It is always important to remember that after prolonged exposure to heavy rain, moisture can seep through the seams and zips of backpacks. Therefore, we recommend using the Rain & Luggage Cover in such cases.

    Main Fabric

    • 100% Polyester (91% recycled, 100% for the Sleek Black version)
    • 600 x 600 Denier
    • PFC-free coating (outside) and PU coating (inside) for waterproofing
    • Sourced from bluesign® System Partner
    Lining
    • 100% Polyester (100% recycled)
    • 150 x 150 Denier
    • PFC-free coating (outside) and PU coating (inside) for waterproofing
    • Sourced from bluesign® System Partner
    Zippers
    • Outside: Durable YKK Natulon® luggage coil zippers (partly recycled)
    • Outside: weatherproof PU coating on back pockets to protect valuables
    • Inside: YKK Natulon® coil zippers (partly recycled)
    • Cube attachment: Sturdy YKK VISLON® zipper
    • Sourced from bluesign® System Partner
    Buckles
    • Recycled plastic (black version), sourced from bluesign® System Partner
    • Durable aluminium hook for roll top closure

    Does the sand colour get dirty easily?
    No, it does not stain easily, however, dark stains are more visible than on the black version. Good to clean. Fine for everyday use. Attach rain cover when exposed to heavy rain, dirt, oil or dust. (read more)

    How should I clean the WayksOne?
    We recommend hand wash only. If necessary use gentle soap and brush. Dry well. (read more)

    Bester Rucksack, den ich je hatte

    Es hat ein wenig gedauert, bis ich alle Features des Rucksacks verstanden hatte (war leider keine Anleitung dabei, gibt aber ein Manual) aber es ist wirklich der beste beste beste Rucksack, den ich je hatte. Er hat quasi alle Features, die ich mir immer gewünscht habe: Rolltop mit Reissverschluss oben, praktische Seitentaschen für Wasserflasche (so dass sie aber nicht rausfällt), dazu diese praktischen Reissverschlüsse seitlich und zum Öffnen wie einen Rollkoffer, flauschige kleine Fächer für Handy und Geldbeutel, die diebstahlsicher angebracht sind, Laptopfach und Wasserabweisend und stylish dazu! Ich liebe ihn so sehr, es ist heftig. Vergesst GOT IT, das hier ist der real deal.

    Gute Umsetzung mit tollenIdeen

    Gut durchdachter Rucksack für viele Einsatzmöglichkeiten. Insbesondere die Gummies zur Befestigung der losen Bänder, die sonst immer rumbaummeln und stören, ist genial

    ein Rucksack für jede Gelegenheit

    I have the black backpack for a few weeks now and I can use it almost in any situation and occasions. Only for the big travel, but then I have it with me too, because I do need a bag for the little things. I love it.

    The perfect bag for all occasions

    Super happy with my purchase. I use it as a daily bag for my laptop and such, and also take it for day trips / hikes. I love all of the compartments, which are SO convenient compared to other brands. One tiny small thing is I wish the reinforced backing was removable sometimes, but then again it's what make the bag super comfortable on the back on long hikes.

    Hi Elise!

    Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a 5* review!

    I did want to follow up on this though because I see that you have the Day Pack Compact. With this model, the padded back panel can indeed be removed, and you can wear this backpack with the included Simple Shoulder Straps as a much lighter and more minimal carrying mode! We have some videos about this here: https://youtu.be/ZpxyxjioR88

    And you can find more information in our Manual on page 18: https://wayks.com/pages/manual

    If we can help with anything just let us know!

    Best wishes,

    What Our Customers Say

    Ich habe mich sehr gut über euer Produkt informiert und bin trotzdem von vielen Details überrascht. Ich kann nicht glauben, wie viel Liebe zum Detail in diesem Rucksack steckt! Ich möchte meinen größten Respekt für so ein durchdachtes Produkt zeigen. Ich studiere Kommunikationsdesign und weiß wie viel Arbeit in den manchmal unscheinbarsten Dingen steckt, die sich jemand überlegt und die dann einfach intuitiv für möglichst viele Leute funktionieren sollen. Deshalb bin ich umso beeindruckter von dem, was ihr mit dem Wayks One geschaffen habt.

    Hanna from Würzburg, Germany, about her WayksOne

    (translated) My Wayks arrived today already and I'm totally in love!

    Regardless of the fact that you brought a wonderful, sustainable and so incredibly well thought-out product into the world, I would also like to thank you very much for the great customer service!

    You're doing a fantastic job and I wish you all the best for the future :)

    Keep it up!!

    A very happy customer :)

    Julia from Hamburg, Germany, about her WayksOne

    (translated) I wanted to tell you how amazing I find the design, functionality and ability of the backpack on the one hand, and of course how cool it is to get an insight into your production, the products you use for manufacturing and your employees . I've rarely been so excited about a brand!

    I wanted to leave you this positive feedback because I can only imagine how much effort, work and passion there is behind your project.

    Hannah from Vienna, Austria, about her WayksOne

    Tausend Dank! Von eurem Kundenservice kann sich so manch einer eine Scheibe abschneiden!

    Jakob from Vienna, Austria, about his WayksOne
