Modularity at its core

The WAYKS ONE Compact is composed of 13 different parts.

You can detach or attach them depending on what you need for you need in that moment. (Photo shows larger "Original" version)

A large zipper extends along the bottom of the Day Pack to attach the Cube. By zipping off the Cube and attaching the Bottom Cover you can convert the Travel Backpack into a smaller Day Pack. (GIFs show wider "Original" version)

If you want your Day Pack to get even lighter and sleeker, remove the back panel and attach the simple and soft seat belt webbing straps.

After removing the hip belt and attaching the shoulder strap, you can use the Cube as a shoulder bag. To enjoy more stability during active sports like cycling or skiing, attach the waist belt to the Day Pack. 

Packs like a Suitcase

The clamshell opening of the WAYKS ONE Compact allows suitcase-like packing. A robust zipper runs along the rear side of the backpack enabling easy, all-round access to your gear.
