ORTLIEB Soulo 25 L

The Ortlieb Soulo 25 L is a backpack designed for riders and commuters who need reliable weather protection without sacrificing carrying comfort. The shell is made from PU-coated polyester (PVC-free) with fully welded seams — no stitching means no weak points for water to sneak through. The IP53 rating confirms resistance to dust and water jets up to 60° from vertical, covering most real-world riding conditions. Inside, a padded sleeve (39 × 27 cm) protects a laptop, while a flat organiser with internal pockets keeps cables, cards and small items sorted. The front zip pocket gives quick access to your phone, keys or wallet without opening the main compartment. The carrying system pairs ergonomic shoulder straps with a TPU back panel featuring ventilation channels and a removable chest strap — a combination that distributes the load evenly and reduces fatigue, even when the bag is loaded up to its 10 kg maximum. A reinforced bottom and top carry handle round out a well-thought construction. A reflective logo on the front panel adds visibility on early-morning or evening rides. The Ebony colourway keeps things low-key. Manufactured in Heilsbronn, Germany, the Soulo 25 L comes with a 5-year warranty covering materials and craftsmanship.
