The perfect companion for travel and everyday use

I recently purchased the Wayks backpack for my trip to Rome, and I have to say, I'm thoroughly impressed. The backpack looks sleek and modern, with a design that is both functional and versatile. It was the perfect size to fit all the essentials for me and my children, and the different compartments helped keep everything organized. After my trip I have been using it in the casual version without the padding when I go shopping.

The materials used are high-quality, which makes me confident that this backpack will last for years to come. In addition to the product itself, I was also pleased with the customer service provided by Wayks. They were fast and helpful.

Overall, I highly recommend the Wayks backpack for anyone who needs a reliable and stylish companion for travel or everyday use.

Love this bag

Best bag I’ve ever owned. I love the little details and the multi-purpose. I use it for my IT office job and I used it on a 5 week trip to Asia. Very convenient and I even received compliments for it and the person wanted to know the brand. Thank you for this nice product. :)

Een mooie rugzak met een geweldig design

Een hele fijne rugzak waarbij je kan zien dat er heel veel tijd, moeite en gedachtegang in het ontwerp is gegaan. In het begin is het nog even uitvogelen waar welk vakje zit en hoe elk aspect van de thuis werkt, maar er is zoveel te verstellen dat er voor ieder wat wils is. Het is een ideale rugzak voor zowel werk als reizen of om bijvoorbeeld even snel boodschappen te doen. Al met al is het een hele veelzijdige rugzak gemaakt van goede en stevige materialen en kan ik het iedereen aanraden!

Thoughtful combination

Very nice designend Bundle with a lot of features. One aspect that i would love is a larger Notebook compartment to fit a 15.6" Gaming Notebook. 1cm thicker and 1cm broader would be fine.

Excellent

I really love my new Wayks-backpack! All the zippers work great, it has good compartments and everything is adjustable! Not as big as a regular big backpack for travels, but works.

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!

(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.
