A two-in-one waxed-canvas system: a full Kangaroo backpack and a detachable hip bag, joined by modular straps for backpack-to-hip-bag versatility.
Waxed canvas
One day you need a full backpack; the next you just want a hip bag for a quick run out the door. This two-in-one system gives you both — a full-size Kangaroo backpack and a detachable hip bag, connected by modular straps so you can build the carry that fits the day.
Clip the two together for travel, a full day on your feet, or a hike that needs room for layers and essentials. Detach the hip bag and leave the backpack behind when all you want is your phone, wallet, and keys close at hand. The modular straps make the switch quick, with no tools and no second bag to buy.
Handcrafted from waxed canvas in black with brown trim, the system wears in over time and stands up to daily use. Both pieces carry the patented U-shaped strap system, so weight stays balanced against your body whether you're wearing the full setup or just the hip bag.
Made for travelers, commuters, and anyone who wants one purchase to cover both ends of the day.

So comfortable and unobtrusive that I almost forgot it was there.
This one was attached to my hip the entire convention.
The Ukoala brings a functional off-body solution to day hikers and urbanites.
From the founder
“I designed every compartment, strap, and closure for a reason — not decoration. This bag was born from a shoelace, a koala, and the belief that one bag should do it all.”
— Mayan Ma, Founder
