The biggest adventures tend to require some pretty tough kit, plus an even tougher kitbag to haul it all around in. The problem with a lot of super-hardwearing, overbuilt drybags is that they’re tricky to open, especially if you need to access the contents quickly. It usually means fiddling with numerous buckles and then unfurling a roll-top multiple times. Not great if you need to locate a specific item in a hurry. Ortlieb’s Atrack is different. It’s a fully waterproof outdoor backpack with all the convenience of a regular travel bag or suitcase. Need to get into it fast? No problem – it simply zips open, giving you an at-a-glance overview of your stuff, as well as instant access to whatever you need. No more rummaging around in search of those vital travel documents. And because it’s completely waterproof, you can take it trekking, biking, ski-touring, canoeing or sailing. The Atrack also comes in three sizes to ensure there’s an ideal option for every adventure on land or water.
Life in the great outdoors is unpredictable, which is why it’s wise to be prepared. Basically, if your adventure goes from dry to downpour, you want your kit to stay safe and protected. Ortlieb’s durable, waterproof bike bags and backpacks are the ideal solution.
The first Ortlieb bag was invented in Germany in 1981, after founder Hartmut Ortlieb got back from a very wet bikepacking adventure in (you guessed it) Southern England. Inspired by tarpaulins he’d seen lashed on the truck beds of lorries, he fashioned a pair of bike panniers from red truck tarp, which he stitched at home on his mother’s sewing machine.
A year later he founded his own company, buoyed by early success and positive feedback from friends. In the following years, young Hartmut came up with a series of innovations that would define the modern drybag, using high frequency welded seams and roll-top closures. He even developed the first self-locking mounting system to attach panniers to bike frames.
Today, Ortlieb remains the first and most trusted choice for adventures and expeditions on land or sea – a brand name synonymous with waterproof protection and super-tough, outdoor-ready gear.
