Rydale's Water-Resistant Rucksack Range

Weather-Ready Protection

Our water-resistant finishes help keep rain, splashes, and moisture away from interior contents – so you can store your valuables with confidence. Match with rainwear, a waxed hat or waterproof hat, and waterproof trousers for proper protection on the wettest days.

Practical Pockets & Smart Organisation

With roomy main compartments, secure zipped pockets, and easy-access sections, these rucksacks make it simple to organise everything from water bottles to tech and dog-walking essentials. Keep treats handy for the pup, store a leather dog lead, and pack an extra fleece or gilet for changeable weather.

Lightweight Comfort

Designed to feel comfortable on your shoulders all day, each rucksack offers supportive straps and a balanced shape that makes carrying your load effortless. Perfect for pairing with a dog walking jacket, padded jacket, or wax jacket on longer outings.

Durable, Easy-Care Materials

Crafted from tough, long-lasting fabrics, these bags stand up to daily wear while remaining easy to wipe clean – ideal for mucky country lifestyles, daily commuting, or outdoor trips. They coordinate beautifully with tweed bags and shooting bags for those who love a complete countryside look.

Versatile Styles for Every Day

Choose from classic country colours and timeless shapes that pair effortlessly with hiking outfits, casual layers, or your weekday wardrobe. Style with country boots, ankle boots, or short wellies depending on the terrain. Layer a fleece gilet, quilted gilet, or tweed gilet over a check shirt for that classic country aesthetic.

For the commute, match with sweatshirts, trousers, and knee-high boots. On weekend walks, add a headband, welly socks, and a fleece-lined shirt for warmth. Browse our outdoor clothing and country classics for more versatile pieces.
