‘What’s a sacoche when it’s at home?’ we hear you ask. Well, it’s essentially a small shoulder bag or pouch – compact enough to keep essentials within reach without the bulk of a full bag. Snow Peak's version holds around 2 litres, featuring a zipped main compartment with an external mesh pocket on the front for quick-grab items, plus a D-ring for clipping on extra bits. An adjustable strap with side-release buckle means you can undo it quickly if you need to. Made in 100% nylon, the water-repellent coating sheds light rain and dirt, while the compact format works for dog walks, cycling, or just nipping to the shops without pockets bulging. Functional minimalism done right.
Snow Peak's journey began in 1958, when the founder Yukio Yamai, an accomplished mountaineer, created his own line of superior climbing gear. Snow Peak then looked to evolve by shifting its focus from the mountaineering equipment of the past to the camping equipment of the future. Fueled by the booming national interest in auto-camping sweeping across Japan, Snow Peak released a series of radically innovative products which focused on quality, functionality, timeless-durability and considered design.
