By employing recycled materials certified by GRS (Global Recycled Standard), 26 plastic bottles were shredded into small flakes, followed by re-polymerization into plastic chips. These chips were then heated, spun into yarn, stitched, and sewn to form the fabric of the Cypress Hero Backpack.

Through the use of Low Energy Bluetooth, the integrated location module of the backpack effortlessly and securely connects with the Apple Find My network. This enables users to conveniently track the whereabouts of their backpack using the Apple Find My app.

Designed to accommodate laptops with a screen size of 15.6 inches, the backpack offers a specialized padded compartment to hold and protect a laptop securely. It includes a spacious main compartment, a secondary compartment equipped with a workstation, and a convenient front quick-stash pocket to accommodate gadgets.
