The Mantis 1 stands out thanks to its lightweight, ergonomic design. Featuring a padded Spacermesh™ back panel, it guarantees good ventilation even during strenuous activity. It can be worn around the waist, over the shoulder, or across the body, depending on your preferences and mobility needs. Measuring 21 x 15 x 8 cm and weighing just 165 g, it is so light you will hardly notice it, yet it is always within easy reach.

Clever storage for your essentials

Don't be fooled by its small size: the Mantis 1 is packed with clever storage solutions. Its main compartment has an open pocket for quick access and a zippered pocket to keep your valuables safe. A front zippered pocket with a key clip helps you organize your small accessories. And on the back, a discreet pocket safely holds a smartphone or transit card.

Sustainable materials for a responsible bag

Made with a 600D recycled polyester main fabric and a dope-dyed polyester lining, this bag is fully in line with Arc'teryx's sustainable approach. Bluesign® certified, it features a fluorine-free water-repellent finish (FC0-DWR) and meets PFAS-free requirements. Some of the colors are obtained through solution dyeing, reducing the environmental impact of the manufacturing process.
