Parker Clay's flagship Atlas Backpack was inspired by their travel between the US and Ethiopia, a journey of over 9,000 miles one-way. The Atlas is the ideal backpack that goes with you on every work venture or weekend adventure. Created for optimal functionality, with an exterior foam-padded laptop compartment and five interior pockets to keep your life organized. The sleek design matched with our premium full grain Ethiopian leather makes the Atlas a fundamental piece to your collection and built to last.
