DESCRIPTION

FORGE 20 includes the following:

• BACKPACK SHOULDER STRAPS

• BRIEF HANDLES

• SHOULDER BAG STRAP

• MAGNETIC KEY RING

• REMOVABLE STERNUM STRAP

FORGE 20 is a smaller Forge that's dedicated to your everyday commute. It’s a 3-Way commuter pack that transforms to a Backpack for comfortable and efficient load carry, a Soft-Brief for business, and a Shoulder-Bag for casual carry. YKK Aquaguard zippers and our proprietary BOND-STITCH construction keep your gear dry. The FORGE 20 is crafted from the new CORDURA® re/cor™ RN66.

FORGE 20 is a clamshell style pack, that means it unzips 360 degrees, so you can see all your gear laid out and well organized right in front of you. Designed with logical gear access in mind, the FORGE 20 has all the organization needed for tech-centric lifestyles. External fast access for essentials like keys, wallet and phones; soft and protective pockets for laptops and tablets; generous easy-access pockets; and hidden zipper pockets for secure items. The FORGE 20 is compatible with rolling luggage handles and features a TSA compliant fully protected and suspended laptop sleeve.

The FORGE 20's ergonomic shoulder straps are optimized for comfort and load carry: two layers of the same EVA-Foam found in the best running shoes make for an especially comfortable and supportive harness. The airflow back-panel keeps you cool and dry and includes a convenient storage space to quickly stow your shoulder straps. Our laser-etched hypalon zipper-pulls lock together with a snap.

Black Ember is proud to be the world's first brand to collaborate with CORDURA® Advanced Fabrics on the launch of its new CORDURA® re/cor™ RN66 collection. It is the first 100% recycled nylon 6,6 textile from CORDURA®.

When compared to virgin N6,6 production CORDURA® re/cor™ RN66 produces 83% fewer GHG emissions, consumes 82% less energy and uses 57% less water.

The CORDURA® re/cor™ RN66 refers to recycled Nylon 6,6. That 6,6 rating means it's a high tenacity nylon and that it is ultra-durable. CORDURA® re/cor™ RN66 has passed the brutal barrage of tests that make a woven nylon CORDURA® brand certified.

All Black Ember products are made using our BOND-STITCH high-precision construction. All textile components are laser-cut for precise assembly. This construction yields a super durable, over-engineered pack with a blacked-out, minimal and stealthy aesthetic.

The FORGE is available in 18 liter or 20 -30 liter expansion sizes.

Manufactured and sold under license to U.S. Pat. No. 10,463,124 from Nomatic, LLC.

Great backpack!
Material and design are great. I wish the backpack straps can be hidden better, now the bottom still shows.

Everything great but not personal item size on some Airlines
I love forge 20. You have to like fidgety things because there are lots of straps and zippers. But I like that. One problem. I bought it as personal item bag to go with my carry on. For some airlines (like United) the limit is 17x10x9. This bag’s dimension is 18x12x9. Maybe no one will notice the difference....

Great backpack, but may be I should have taken the classical FORGE.
Superb quality of the backpack, I really do like it a lot. I was still been using the BlackEmber backpack from the Kickstarter campaign in 2015 (?) and switched to the FORGE-20 for daily use with notebook and stuff. The quality really is outstanding, everything‘s nicely crafted and well thought out....

Exactly as promised
I love this everyday pack as a convertible briefcase, which is how I use it most of the time. It's about 5 liters too small to carry the extra change of clothes I need for an overnighter. That would make it perfect.

Seemless change
This bag perfectly changes from backpack to a crossbody or a briefcase. I am aware that some customers say it’s not easy to switch; however, that’s lack of planning… you plan your day or weeken before you leave home. You may leave the hose with a backpack and change it in the office or hotel. Folks,...

Excellent construction and durability. Plenty of storage and utility space. Compact enough for travel but large enough to handle all electronics.

Great Pack
Love it. I replaced an Eagle Creek backpack briefcase. The Forge-20, while not as roomy, is efficiently laid out and much slimmer and lighter. It feels great wearing or carrying.
