Witzman canvas backpack vintage travel bag (A519-1) – black
Looking for a solid weekender that doesn’t scream “tourist”? This Witzman canvas backpack nails it — vintage looks, sensible details and plenty of space for short trips or the daily commute. It’s crafted from recycled canvas with a polyester lining, so it feels robust without being daftly heavy. A few thoughtful touches make it much easier to live with on the road.
what it is
A versatile travel and daypack that converts between backpack, tote and crossbody with a removable shoulder strap (approx. 53 inches / 135 cm). There’s a padded laptop compartment that takes up to a 17″ laptop, a luggage sleeve to slide it onto a trolley handle and useful external pockets for things you need to grab quickly. Roomy enough for a 2–4 night trip or a proper day out with kit.
key features
- Recycled canvas outer and polyester lining for a tough finish with a smaller environmental footprint.
- Padded laptop compartment fits most 12–17″ laptops and includes foam padding for extra protection.
- Three front pockets, a side pocket and internal slip pockets, plus two pen pockets to stop small things going walkabout.
- Convertible carry options: backpack straps, removable shoulder strap for crossbody or tote use, and a hidden rear zip to tuck straps away neatly.
- Luggage trolley sleeve to perch the bag on a suitcase handle, plus chest and waist braces to spread the load when it gets heavy.
- Removable, adjustable shoulder strap (approx. 53 inches / 135 cm) for flexible carrying choices.
dimensions and capacity
Measures approximately H 22 x L 12.5 x W 8 inches (about 56 x 32 x 20 cm) with an estimated 36 L capacity, and weighs around 1.57 kg (3.46 lbs). A comfortable size for weekend breaks, overnight business trips or a commute with a bit of extra kit — shirts, a couple of trousers, wash-kit and a laptop slot in without too much faff.
who this suits
Perfect for anyone after a durable, stylish bag that pulls double duty. Great for commuters, students, short-break travellers and anyone who likes a vintage look without losing organisation. Marketed as a men’s bag, but the design and sizing work equally well for anyone who fancies the style.
practical notes and tips
The canvas is robust but not guaranteed fully waterproof, so in heavy rain a lightweight cover or keeping valuables in dry bags is sensible. The hidden rear zip pocket is handy for passports or tickets when travelling, and the trolley sleeve saves you juggling a bag and case at airports. If the pack gets heavy, clip the chest and waist braces in and it’ll sit much more comfortably.
In short, the Witzman A519-1 pairs a roomy, well-organised interior with convertible carry options and a classic look — a sound choice if you want an everyday travel bag that doesn’t shout “catalogue kit”.
