- Made in Britain with our 25-year Alpine Bond guarantee
- cleenTEC®-certified climate neutral fabric
Designer’s notes
“For Escape Hip Pack we asked our UK factory seamsters to take the fantastic X-Pac® X11 fabric from our bikepacking range and turn it into a versatile pack that gives extra storage on two feet or two wheels. A hip pack is a great way to expand your carrying capacity. Or, use one instead of a full backpack when you’re moving fast and light.
The X-Pac® fabric is a sustainable choice: it’s climate neutral and made in factories that only use green energy. But this doesn’t come at the expense of performance. It’s weatherproof and built to last and like all our UK Made kit is covered by our 25-year Alpine Bond. We’ve added pockets and compartments to help you organise your valuables and Velcro straps to convert it to a handlebar bag."

Organic cotton

Climate neutral fabric
X-Pac® X11 fabric is certified by cleenTEC® as climate neutral. X11 is made from a mixture of plant-based and recycled materials and manufactured in factories using only green energy.

Reducing our carbon footprint
We are carbon neutral under PAS2060 and offset our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 operations and transport emissions. We recognise that offsetting is not part of the solution but a point to pass through on a journey to Net Zero. Carbon Neutral is just a step in that journey.
We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intensity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.
