Beautifully made, strong yet light weight and should last for years, an absolute delight.
Backpack Care Instructions
Your backpack is made by hand from Halley Stevensons waxed organic cotton and natural Spanish leather. It’s designed to age beautifully, picking up character and colour from every adventure. It’ll never look new again, and it’s all the better for it.
Everyday care
A little care goes a long way. Keep it simple:
Do
- Hand wash only, in cold water at 30 degrees or cooler
- Use the smallest amount of mild detergent
- Dab away any dirt, don’t scrub
- Leave it to dry naturally in a warm room
Don’t
- Tumble dry or towel dry
- Iron, bleach or dry clean
- Dry it on direct heat or near a fire
Wonderful when wet
On those soggy days your pack will get soaked, but your kit inside stays nice and dry. Once you’re home, just leave it to dry in a warm room, away from direct heat. Easy.
Reproofing
To keep your pack highly weatherproof, reproof it every 12 to 18 months, or whenever water stops beading on the surface. Spray it lightly and evenly with our fluorocarbon free, transparent Eco Reproofing Spray, then leave it to dry in a warm room.

You can feel the extra quality in the weight of this item compared to cheaper t shirts you get on the market. Washed on 30 degrees and kept its shape and didn't shrink that I've noticed.

Growing increasingly fed up with trendy brands and fast fashion I went on the lookout for more ethical and personal businesses to get a few tshirts from. That's how I came across The Level Collective. I bought 3, the quality feels great, they fit very nicely.

Used for short weekend trips. Carried everything easily, waterproof. Quite comfy for hikes as well on the train.

These t-shirts feel SO good with material that feels robust. Usually after a wash t-shirts lose the 'brand new' feeling, but these do not. Also the designs last well after many washes.
Backpack Care Instructions
How to care for a waxed cotton backpack. Our packs are made from waxed organic cotton by Halley Stevensons, which, as they explain, is naturally breathable: the wax softens in warm weather and stiffens in the cold to block the wind. With use it picks up creases and marks that give every bag its own character. To keep it weatherproof, brush off dirt once dry, wipe with a cold damp cloth and never machine wash. Re-proof every 12 to 18 months, or whenever water stops beading, with a waxed cotton reproofing spray or wax. The natural leather will darken into a rich patina over time.
