Manitoba

Manitoba is a compact everyday backpack with a 16 L capacity. It is smaller and more casual than larger DIYION canvas backpacks such as Uppsala, while still offering enough room for daily essentials, a book, a small pouch and light personal items.

Yes. Manitoba is designed for light daily carry, short commutes, errands, casual city use and relaxed weekend days. It is a good choice when you want a vintage canvas backpack without the size or structure of a full work or travel bag.

Manitoba includes a padded laptop compartment, but it is best used as a compact daily backpack rather than a dedicated laptop work bag. If laptop carry is your main priority, Milan, Helsinki, Ystad or Göteborg will usually be better choices.

Manitoba is made from sturdy cotton canvas and can handle light daily exposure, but it is not a fully waterproof dry bag. For heavy rain, we recommend protecting electronics inside an additional sleeve or pouch.

Choose Manitoba if you want a compact vintage canvas backpack for casual daily carry. It is a good fit if you like leather-flap rucksacks, soft canvas, a smaller silhouette and a relaxed everyday style.

Some Manitoba variants are available with personalisation. If the option is visible on the product page, you can choose the personalised version before adding the backpack to your cart.
