The Brief
Reverse engineer the Arc'teryx Blade 6 Backpack and add two new developments to the design.
Target Demographic
The Blade 6 is a commuter pack for professionals aged 25-55. This bag is designed for office workers, often used by those in tech and IT.
The original Blade 6.
The Blade 6.21, our reverse-engineered version.
Process
One of the project constraints was that we could not damage or deconstruct the original Blade 6 bag in any way. In order to create our pattern we relied on measuring and taping up the original pack.
Solution
We made three changes to the original Blade 6 design to update it for the needs of the modern consumer in 2021.
