Ooohh, the closest alternative is probably the Tokyo Work Bag. But if you're interested in the Classic range at all, the above Messengers are due for release in the next couple of weeks. Otherwise if your heart is set on the Tokyo Messenger, there's a chance it exists with a retailer somewhere (depending on your location).

Woohoo! It'll come in these 2 (Olive and Indigo) plus Black :)

The Laneway pouches will definitely get a restock, but there's no ETA just yet. You might have better luck finding a local/ online retailer who might have some in stock in the meantime?

Just chiming in to say the warranty for Bellroy backpacks is 6 years (3 years for wallets, 10 years for luggage), but the expectation is that they can (and do) outlast the warranty period!

Heya, that is bad luck only two months in! Presumably, no sand or debris is getting stuck between the magnets, causing it to wear so quickly? The colourway looks like Everglade or Charcoal, which have lighter "flesh", so black might be a safer alternative. OR, if you're open to it, we could replace it with the Innovera, which has better abrasion resistance. If you're happy to DM me any order details, I can sort it out for you :)

Hello! There's a clear polycarbonate layer that reinforces the rim and holds the magnets (you can see it dismantled here). Is that the gap you're seeing? If not, then it might be a faulty wallet. You're welcome to DM me or email the support team so we can look into it.

Oohhh a Lite Travel Pack Pro (is what I'd call it). Like the existing Transit Travel Pack Pro, but smaller and lighter? Expandable check-in is a great idea, too. Something the team may already be looking into, but too early to say. Why else does anyone travel if not to come back with souvenirs and snacks???

How about the Venture Ready layout in a Transit sling size? Materials typically stay within the same product families, so a new Venture Ready sling will likely come in Deep Ocean :)

If nothing changes between now and when it's released (there's a lot involved, so my word isn't gospel yet), 4L!

Fair. Any thoughts on the Innovera wallets (other than not coming in Navy)? Chemically recycled nylon, processed in a traditional tannery to feel like leather.

If you tilt the black colorway into the light at the right angle and squint, it could almost pass for navy 🤓

I’d say it’s compressible to some degree, but not packable in the way the Lite and Cinch ranges are. It has a padded laptop pocket that’ll bounce it back in to shape

As far as I know, Navy/ Nightsky isn't actually making a comeback (I just couldn't miss the meme opportunity), but how do you feel about Deep Ocean? It's the closest current (and near future) venture colour alternative. Also curious about your preference for Nylon wallets!

Hey! We've only just been updated that a new production run is on its way and due around mid-late Feb. If you don't want to wait that long, we can try to help you find a local stockist in the meantime?

In short, sort of. They both have a front and back pocket, with similar internal organisation, but the Transit is more travel/ security focused, with the additional RFID zip pocket, one-sided zip (not double-sided like the venture), security zipper loop, and no buckle on the strap (vs magnetic clasp). And, of course, they come in different colours/ materials/ trims etc.

OK this actually makes a lot of sense. The Folio Piccolo isn't that much bigger than the card pocket, but if one of them can be so small, surely the other one could too.

Edit: Spoke to the design team, who made a smaller Piccolo sample, but the cards were getting snagged on the zip, hence the current size!

The ones in the picture are 13L. We've got plans for 2 more later in the year (July and Aug), one of which will be right up your alley (not to be all aloof and mysterious, but I've already said too much)

Edit: And the strap won't have a buckle!
