Patagonia Bags & Backpacks

Patagonia backpacks and bags at The Sporting Lodge — Official UK Stockist. Built for daily carry and trips since 1973, the range uses recycled, hard-wearing fabrics with weather protection. From compact slings to travel-ready daypacks, pick straightforward designs that organise kit for town and trail. 

Sling bags for quick outings

The Atom Sling 8L is a neat option among Patagonia's sling bags: it features fast front access, stable single-strap carry, and a tough shell that shrugs off scuffs and light showers. It helps keep weight down for bike rides, errands, and short walks.

Backpacks for everyday and hikes

Mid-size Patagonia backpacks, such as the Black Hole Pack 25L/32L, offer simple organisation and a padded sleeve for tech. Terravia Packs (14L/28L/36L) add breathable back panels and secure hip-belt pockets for longer days. Fieldsmith styles keep a classic look with lid closures, while the slim Stealth Switch Pack 9L stays low-profile for commuting.

Specialist packs for wet conditions

The Guidewater Backpack is designed for fishing and wet weather, featuring a waterproof build and drainage-friendly details. The Black Hole Pack 32L steps up capacity for weekends or heavier loads, featuring external points for clipping extra gear.
