The chase for Roark began out of a desire to tell stories born of adventure and discovery in the form of a man – he’s the shadowy adventurer that disappears into Mexico for six months camping, only to surface in Paris drinking Bordeaux with a diplomat. Each season we find Roark in a different part of the world, telling stories of exploration within their products.
I immediately connected with this brand because of the way they do things and the products they design. When I decided to test their 3 day fixer bag, I had high expectations for delivery and quality.
It was important for me to have a bag that I could easily carry during a race weekend that would have compartments for the different types of clothing I would bring, such as cycling kits and regular clothes. Lets look together all the features the Roark 3 day fixer bag has.
The bag
The bag is constructed of a durable 1050 denier ripstop material which makes him really durable. The backpack contains zipper bi-fold dual compartments with mesh zip flap to secure your clothes and pouches, a padded laptop zip pocket which is great since I usually write my articles right after my races/event and a hidden passport pocket.
