Kapten & Son Helsinki Backpack – Minimal Design, Maximum Everyday Function
Meet the Kapten & Son Helsinki Backpack — a sleek, smart daily companion that perfectly balances urban elegance and outdoor practicality. Designed for modern explorers and everyday commuters alike, this vegan and water-repellent backpack keeps your essentials organized, protected, and easy to access. Its minimalist design and matte finish make it the kind of bag that turns every journey into a smooth, effortless routine.
Who it’s for?
Urban commuters, creative professionals, minimal travelers, and students who crave organization without the bulk. The Helsinki backpack fits seamlessly into your lifestyle — whether you're biking through the city, catching a flight, or setting up your mobile office for the day.


Why It Stands Out
- ✔️ Smart organization: dedicated laptop sleeve (fits 15"), four inner pockets, and three exterior zippers for perfect order
- ✔️ Water-repellent & easy-care: made from premium vegan tech material that resists light rain and everyday wear
- ✔️ Built for mobility: padded back and straps, suitcase attachment, and anti-theft pocket for peace of mind on the go
- ✔️ Sleek urban style: minimalist silhouette with a matte texture that pairs perfectly with business or casual looks
- ✔️ Sustainable inside out: lined with recycled PET and crafted entirely from vegan, durable materials
Designed for Modern Life
From your morning coffee run to late-night flights, the Kapten and Son Helsinki Backpack adapts effortlessly. Slide your laptop into the padded sleeve, secure your wallet in the hidden back pocket, and you’re ready for whatever the day brings — rain, meetings, or movement. Compact yet structured, it transitions smoothly from workdays to weekends, fitting perfectly under airplane seats or onto your bike rack.

Why You’ll Love It
- Looks sharp in every setting — from city commutes to short getaways
- Keeps your tech safe and your essentials within reach
- Lightweight, ergonomic, and comfortable all day long
- Built from conscious materials that last and respect the planet
The Helsinki backpack is more than a bag — it’s a mindset. Calm, organized, ready for motion. If you need more space for extended trips, discover its big brother: the Helsinki Pro, designed for travel and adventure.
