There is nothing worse than leaving for the office when it’s sunny outside, only to leave come 5pm and the heavens have opened. Actually, there is.
Getting caught in the downpour with no jacket, umbrella, or protective gear to shield your laptop and other tech essentials from, only to have a malfunction the next time you flip your screen open because of the exposure to moisture.
We have heard great things about Rains clothing and accessories, so we were pleased to find the Rains Mini Rubberised Backpack reduced in a rare Harvey Nichols sale.
The workwear, and everyday essential, has been slashed in price from £80 to £48 in the Harvey Nichols sale, which is a steal you won’t want to miss.
Rains Mini Rubberised Backpack
Crafted from durable PU fabric, with a fully lined interior, this backpack delivers on durability. It features a 13 inch laptop pocket, large main compartment, as well as a slip back pocket to house your valuables. It features a flap top, magnetic button fastening and lobster clasp to secure the bag shut. The two shoulder straps are adjustable for your comfort. It measures 28cm in width, 44.5cm in height and 9cm in depth.
The Rains Mini Rubberised Backpack has been crafted from the brand’s signature PU fabric, which is weatherproof, durable and super sleek. It achieves a matte finish, which we think looks even more sophisticated than a canvas or shiny patent exterior that can show signs of wear.
The square shape of the rucksack means it fits a laptop comfortably without crushing it into louche bags or other shaped designs.
What we love most is a bag with pockets, which this Rains creation delivers in abundance. It boasts an internal 13” laptop pocket so you can sleep easy knowing your work ‘bible’ will be protected against the elements or being knocked from other items in your bag.
It also features a large main compartment, as well as a concealed phone pocket that is located on the back panel – out of the way from prying hands.
The bag features a top flap to keep your items safe, as well as a magnet snap fastening, and buckle detail for extra security. Plus, the fully lined interior provides extra cushioning and protection.
This bag measures 28cm in width, 44.5cm in height and 9cm in depth. So it is deep, as well as wide. It also features two adjustable shoulder straps so you can fit the bag securely to your back whether you are walking or cycling to the office.
It is available in a peach colourway, which we think is super chic and perfect for the summer months, though there are select other colourways that have been reduced at Harvey Nichols.
The Rains Mini Rubberised Backpack can be worn all year long, which is why snapping it up while it’s on sale is a no brainer as you are bound to get your cost per wear out of this durable accessory.
It’s unknown how long the discounted price will last, but considering it is full price on the Rains website, this is not an offer to sleep on.
