Waterfield Introduces Industry’s First Custom Backpack for the Apple Vision Pro and Accessories

Published

on

WaterField Designs introduces the first purpose-built backpack for the Apple Vision Pro, in time for Apple’s Vision Pro International Release. WaterField’s innovative Backpack for Apple Vision Pro protects and comfortably transports the Vision Pro and its accessories, as well as the auxiliary devices that improve its ease of use and productivity — a MacBook Pro, a Magic Keyboard, a trackpad, and a gaming controller.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — San Francisco high-end bag and case manufacturer, WaterField Designs, introduces the bespoke Backpack for Apple Vision Pro, an innovative backpack designed to carry and protect the entire Vision Pro ensemble and the supporting devices that make Apple’s new spatial computer more convenient and productive — a 16-inch MacBook Pro, a Magic Keyboard, a Magic Trackpad, and more.

We set out to create a specialized Vision Pro backpack that carries the Vision Pro along with the auxiliary devices users need to use the device most effectively and efficiently.

One custom compartment cradles the Apple Vision Pro and its accessories, and another sports two built-in sleeves for a laptop and a keyboard, with additional space for personal items. The entire Backpack for Apple Vision Pro is protected by impact-resistant foam and soft padding, making it ideal for professionals, travelers, and hobbyists who wish to carry their Vision Pro mobile office safely and comfortably.

“Customers told us that the typing precisely with their Vision Pro was difficult and that to be truly productive, they connect the headset to other Apple devices — their Mac, keyboard, and trackpad,” said company owner, Gary Waterfield. “So, we set out to create a specialized Vision Pro backpack that carries the Vision Pro along with everything else they’d need to be effective and efficient. The result is an innovative backpack with excellent protection, easy access, and creative features all wrapped in a stylish, professional look.”

Tailored for individuals who transport the Vision Pro to and from work or on their travels, the Backpack for Apple Vision Pro offers a comfortable, elegant solution suitable for any setting. The modular backpack makes the most out of every inch of space and protects the Vision Pro on all sides. A padded, removable, middle shelf divides the pack into two independently accessible compartments. Firm foam protects the bag’s front, back, bottom, and sides and helps the Backpack for Apple Vision Pro keep its shape and stand upright. 

The lower section of the Vision Pro backpack forms a highly padded bunker for the Vision Pro and accessories with padded pockets and pouches designed to protect the computer and keep it stable. A padded “hammock” supports the Vision Pro headset (with headband attached) off the bottom of the bag. A padded “hatbox” with Ultrasuede® ZEISS Optical Insert pockets sits between the computer and headband to hold accessories and to keep the Vision Pro snugly in place. A padded pocket protects the front of the Vision Pro and holds the battery, extra headband, power adapter, cables, and Magic Trackpad. Two removable accessory pouches, tailored to fit on either side of the “hammock,” stow additional items while providing further protection and stability for the Vision Pro.

The backpack’s upper compartment includes access to a padded, built-in MacBook Pro laptop sleeve, a padded keyboard pocket, a secure zippered pocket (with a hidden AirTag pocket inside), and space for additional personal items such as lunch or a light jacket, or tech equipment such as a handheld gaming device and accessories. Each of the two main compartments is independently accessible via smooth-gliding waterproof zippers.

Flexible carrying options – ergonomic shoulder straps with moisture-wicking mesh padding, a leather-lined handle, and a wheeled suitcase passthrough — enhance convenience on the train, in the office, and at the airport.
