Description

PORTER SONIC Waist Bag S in black, product code 600-08204. Made in Japan from lightweight stonewashed tarpaulin, the bag has a compact rectangular profile and can be worn around the waist or across the body.

A horizontal zip runs around the lower section of the bag. Opening this zip releases an expansion panel that increases the height and carrying capacity. The design also includes a zipped main compartment, rear zipped pocket, internal storage sections, an adjustable webbing strap and a quick-release buckle.

The black technical exterior, tonal hardware and understated PORTER branding give the bag a clean utilitarian appearance. It is suited to everyday use, travel, cycling and carrying smaller daily items.

The SONIC collection was introduced in 2008 and used thin stonewashed tarpaulin to produce a softer and more flexible finish than conventional industrial tarpaulin. Water-resistant zip construction was also used across the series.

Very good pre-owned condition. The coated tarpaulin exterior retains a strong black finish with no visible holes, tears, major peeling or structural damage. The seams appear secure and the zips, pull cords, strap hardware and side-release buckle are intact. The expandable lower compartment is in working order.

There is normal creasing across the coated material, particularly around the front, top, rear and expandable lower panels. Light surface marks and fine scratches are visible in places. The printed PORTER logo shows mild wear. Light dust and lint are visible inside, with minor signs of previous use around the seams and zipper edges.
