RAVEN
Part of the ORIGIN Line
The Raven is 100% handmade in Virginia, USA. As an Origin Line product, it’s built in small batches with premium materials and experimental hardware - making each run extremely limited by design. More information ≫
A backpack built for the in-between.
Originally envisioned as a bag you could wear to inspect a production line in the morning and walk into a C-suite meeting that same afternoon — Raven is designed to move seamlessly between environments. Clean lines, modular organization, and a silhouette that doesn’t shout make it just as suitable for workspaces as it is for transit, coffee shops, or weekend field testing. Use the internal systems when you want structure. Ignore them when you don’t. Every feature is intentional, but never demanding.
Constructed with a hybrid material palette that pairs ultralight technical fabrics like Dyneema® with grounded, tactile elements like leather, metal snap buttons, and magnetic closures—Raven balances heritage with the future in every interaction.
Our unique Quick Access Pocket was specially designed to keep your mission-critical gear separate, protected, and always within reach.
A separate section at the top of the bag provides a configurable storage compartment for cameras, handheld devices, batteries, or anything you want to keep close at hand. Stashed in the bag are also Velcro®-attached storage dividers to keep everything in its place.
From the top of the bag, you can access your gear from the back of this compartment. Pulling back a magnetic divider reveals the Raven's stealthy laptop sleeve. From the interior of the bag, a separate zipper gives access and allows a perfect overview of everything you've stowed.
Dual-Access Upper Quick Pocket
The upper quick-access pocket can be reached from the exterior or interior when the bag is fully clamshelled open. Designed for modular access whether you’re mid-transit or fully unpacked.
Dual Front Vertical Zippers
Twin vertical zips on the front panel offer fast, intuitive access to the quick-access compartment. Inside, ultrastretch mesh pockets adapt to your carry—stretching to fit bulkier gear or laying flat when not in use.
Full Clamshell Main Compartment
Unzip the main shell entirely for a clean, top-down view of the internal layout. Built for users who value visibility and ease of packing.
Unified Rear Zipper Access
A single YKK zipper tucked along the upper back provides seamless entry to both the quick-access pocket and the padded laptop compartment—built for speed without sacrificing separation.
Magnetic Divider
Internally, a magnetic flap system creates soft separation between the laptop sleeve and quick-access pocket. Move fluidly between work and everyday gear, without friction.
Modular Luggage Pass-Through
A detachable pass-through system comes included, letting you slide Raven over a roller handle for smoother travel days. Attach it when you need it, stash it when you don’t.
Concealed Airtag Pocket
Stay connected to your pack. A discreet internal pocket secures your Airtag or tracker device—peace of mind, baked into the build.
Dual Magnetic Slip Pockets
Two internal slip pockets snap shut with hidden magnets—designed to keep essentials close, organized, and quietly secure.
Hook & Loop Divider System in QAP
The lightly padded quick-access pocket is outfitted with loop-compatible lining and removable dividers. Store a compact camera setup, sensitive electronics, or break up your daily carry exactly how you want.
Modular Frame Sheet System
Raven ships with both a laser-cut polymer frame sheet and a removable foam sheet. Run one, both, or none—dial in your ideal carry feel and structure.

Raven’s no-dangle shoulder strap system is clean, quiet, and deliberate; however, it does mean adjustability is limited. We’ve tuned the fit to work for most body types, though there are always outliers.
If you’re exceptionally petite or lean, or if you prefer your bag to ride high, the Short strap length may suit you best. For everyone else, the Standard length will feel right at home. Our exact strap measurements and ranges can be found in Specifications.
Choosing Your Strap Length
Not sure whether to go with the Short or Standard strap? The best way is to measure the straps on your most comfortable bag (or a few, if you have them) and see what length you typically keep them at. Then compare those measurements to the strap dimensions listed in the Specifications section on this page.
Check our Size Guide gallery for reference shots and model measurements before you decide - because the right fit is as much about comfort as it is about design. If you have further questions, do not hesitate to message us via e-mail or Instagram DM.
