“Where Craft Meets Character.”

A sleek silhouette crafted from an unconventional material — meet the modern roll-top backpack made from refined kraft paper. Built for city explorers and wanderers alike, it’s the kind of bag that doesn’t just carry your things — it carries your spirit.

Resilient, featherlight, and waterproof — this backpack laughs in the face of compromise.

Still raising an eyebrow at the thought of a paper backpack? Relax. You’re in safe hands. Every piece comes backed by a 2-year warranty.

Tests have shown it’s as light as paper — literally — yet it punches far above its weight in durability and design.

Inside, you’ll find space for everything: a roomy main compartment, side zipper, and inner pockets for the essentials you can’t leave behind. The Atlas doesn’t just hold your belongings — it holds your story.

Each Paperbourne backpack is one of a kind. No two pieces look alike, shaped by the natural quirks of kraft paper. At first, it’s firm to the touch — but give it time. It softens, molds, and gains character with every journey, aging beautifully with a patina that tells its own tale.

Wipe it clean with a damp cloth and it’s ready to go again.

Frequently asked questions

What is a cardigan?

A cardigan is a type of knitted sweater that opens at the front, usually with buttons or a zipper, rather than being pulled over the head like a pullover. It’s designed for layering, making it versatile for both warmth and style.

Key features:

  • Front opening: Often buttoned or zipped, which makes it easy to put on or take off.
  • Variety of fabrics: Can be made from wool, cotton, polyester, or blends.
  • Different styles: Ranges from chunky, casual knits to fine, lightweight versions for formal or office wear.
  • Versatile use: Works well as a casual layer, a smart-casual piece, or even as part of a business outfit.

In short, a cardigan is a cozy, flexible layer that combines comfort with style.

If you want, I can also explain how to style a cardigan for different occasions.

Are they water-resistant?

Absolutely. Each bag is built to withstand rain and daily wear while maintaining its shape and charm.

What is the fabric of the cardigan made off?

Paperbourne bags are not made from traditional fabric like cotton or polyester. They are crafted from engineered kraft paper, a specially treated paper material that is:


  • Durable and flexible — reinforced with natural cellulose fibers and latex for strength and pliability.

  • Water-resistant — able to withstand rain and daily wear.

  • Lightweight — as light as paper but strong enough for everyday use.

  • Vegan and eco-friendly — free from animal products and fully recyclable.

Essentially, it’s a high-performance, paper-based material designed to feel and function like a rugged, long-lasting textile while remaining sustainable.

If you want, I can also explain how it compares to fabric backpacks in terms of durability and feel, which is pretty interesting. Do you want me to?

Are Paperbourne bags vegan and recyclable?

Completely. They are made without animal products and are fully recyclable.
