Pro-tector create quality travel accessories designed by a Backpacker for Backpackers

Started becouse we were fed up of airlines destroying our rucksacks we designed the current

range of rucksack Pro-tector bags, and have now spread into other travel accessories we found

unable to find elswehere.

All out goods are designed by a Backpacker for practical use by backpackers,

made and quality checked in Nepal, It is my sincere hope that once I start to sell in some volume,

to then put back a percentage of the profits into Nepal to try and help the more unfortunate

people over there
