FAQs

What is the difference between the original Taw and the 2.0?The 2.0 version is updated with upgraded materials, zips and lining. It also comes with a matching reclaimed leather tag.

What is reclaimed leather?

Reclaimed leather is leather given a second life. It comes from a variety of sources, such as unused vintage furniture hides, offcuts from larger leather productions, or even old garments. These hides are then meticulously cleaned, conditioned, and sometimes even re-dyed to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind materials.

Everything you need

Took this beauty to Latvia for 2 weeks and it delivered. Easy to pack, fits Ryan Air’s ‘personal item’ size limits if you don’t overpack it, slim enough you don’t feel like you’re gonna knock everything off the shelves if you’re wearing it inside, comfy for long days. Well-made and goes with everything you want to wear. Love it.

Taw 2.0 in Moss Green: A Stylish and Sturdy Bag

Great bag, stylish look, durable and excellent build quality. Love the feel of the waxed canvas and the moss green color. Could have benefitted from additional internal organization with more dedicated small pockets to make smaller items easier to manage. An absolute 5 stars.

Taw 2.0 - Waxed Canvas Rolltop Backpack - Tan?

First impressions - relatively lightweight but seemingly very well made and functional backpack; very happy to be taking it on next planned journeys.

Quality materials, but the proportions are off. I will be bringing this to a tailor to resolve some of the design detailing mistakes.

Great backpack 🙂

I have a number of weekend holdalls & briefcases from a well known manufacturer of similar waxed products. This Kovered backpack is better (or at least as good) & Is a dramatically better price. Go for the various Kovered products, you won’t regret it

Looove the backpack: well-packaged, sturdy, beautiful design
However, i'm really dissapointed by the color difference 😟 it's not the beautiful moss green you see in the pictures, its duller and greyish/brownish in real life
Would‘ve asked for a refund if i didn’t need it for a trip
Such a minor thing but still a let-down for such a gorgeous bag, especially if you approach buying something consciously and try to find the best option

Christmas present

Bought the Backpack for my husband as a surprise Christmas present as he’s off to Africa in the summer, ended up giving it to my 30++ son who loved it, as did other son and husband..looks like I may be back for more once it’s had a test run!

No other backpack required!

This bag is impressively sturdy—built like it could survive a zombie apocalypse (think Joel from The Last of Us!). While I initially encountered some minor issues after about three months—poor stitching on the straps and two magnetic clips falling off—the outstanding customer service quickly turned things around with a prompt replacement. For future iterations of this bag, I’d love to see the buckles made more functional rather than purely decorative. A return to durable, reliable buckle straps would improve this already impressive design

Quality at a great price

Recently purchased the Taw backpack and am very impressed. The bag has a very classic look and the materials are very high quality. I used the bag for a weekend travelling abroad and found it the perfect size for this, the roll top makes it very versatile.
Delivery was quick and communication very good. Also the price point is fantastic, other bags made using similar materials are much more expensive but there is no compromise on quality
Would highly recommend

Excellent backpack

Really nicely made. A fantastic case for my computer and all my other stuff

Price was so low I thought it too good to be true, but this bag’s quality is sublime. The branded inner fabric of the pockets shows to me the handcrafted, bespoke quality of the entire thing. Love this piece.

A bag that means business

The rucksack I used to carry my laptop and other work things around broke and I was faced with a dilemma: buy another bag from TK Maxx for £30 that would probably break within a year or two, or invest in something that'd last. I went for option 2. After some web research I came across Kovered. Their range of backpacks looked classy, hardwearing and solidly made - and it turned out, that's exactly what I got with the Taw. It's a proper grown-up bag, a bag that means business. A bag that I hope will look after my stuff for years to come. From what I've seen so far, I think it will.

Best pack ever!!

Perfect every day everything pack. I bike commute often and have been stuck riding in rain and the waxed canvas keeps all of my edc’s dry.
