Incase, a leading global design-driven brand that provides solutions that organize, mobilize and protect the ideas of today’s creatives, announced its new A.R.C. Collection: an ecosystem of sustainable bags delivering refined mobility for the individual journey. Comprised of the Travel Pack, Commuter Pack, Daypack, and Tech Tote, the A.R.C. Collection, short for “A Responsible Carry”, features a range of tools that provide the protection, mobility and privacy suitable for your tech and personal essentials. Through the use of innovative wellness features and sustainable materials, A.R.C. is an activated step forward that pays homage to Incase’s brand legacy at the intersection of lifestyle and technology.
“The A.R.C. Collection is an intentional step forward for Incase, rooted in the brand’s legacy of purpose-driven design focused on performance, simplicity and innovation, while representing everything we stand for today,” says Brian Stech, CEO of Incase. “We’ve incorporated essential protection, sustainability, design, and organizational features into each bag to provide today’s creatives with the utility and versatility they need to navigate their surroundings, whether that takes them to the office or on the road.”
Key features of the Incase A.R.C. Collection include:
Premium, Sustainable Materials & Trims
The Incase A.R.C. Collection is crafted using sustainable 900D X 1200D recycled polyester, with the main fabric incorporating an exterior durable water repellent coating to resist water and stains. Additionally, outer-most pockets made from 900D recycled polyester include an ultra-resilient PU coating to protect areas of high wear. YKK weather resistant and RC Zippers throughout the bags help keep vulnerable tech safe and ensures access to main compartments remains smooth and reliable. UTX hardware throughout reinforces the strength of the bags.
Comfortable Ortholite Impressions Foam
Eco-friendly, cooling Ortholite Impressions memory foam in the shoulder straps and back panels of the bags fight bacteria growth and enhance breathability for maximized comfort.
RFID-Blocking Material
Each bag’s tech compartment integrates RFID-Bocking material that blocks any cellular, radio, and GPS transmission, thus shielding credit cards, passports, ID’s and tech devices against digital theft.
Bacterial Growth Prevention
All webbing on the top and side handles, as well as in the interior 210D Nylon lining throughout the collection fights growth of bacteria, as well as unpleasant odors, discoloration, staining, and deterioration in the most prone areas.
Thoughtful Laptop Storage & Accessory Organization
Dedicated laptop compartments lined with performance padding protection and faux fur provides thoughtful storage for a laptop, larger valuables or can double as a document pocket. Multiple internal compartments and external pockets keep everyday tech essentials organized and protected on-the-go.
