Data-driven design

Born out of the tech communities of Silicon Valley and Toronto, Watson is the product of deep research into how professionals actually use their bags. We watched and interviewed hundreds of people using backpacks from San Francisco startup offices to New York coffee shops. The result? A user experience that’s intuitive and a powerful upgrade to the everyday carry.

Instant access to what you need, when you need it.

Zero to working in seconds

Our revolutionary push-to-open design allows you to open your bag with one touch and no chance of zippers getting stuck. The bag stands proudly on it’s own and you can see everything inside at a glance. 

Kick off you productive day in just one click.
