Product Overview
The Craghoppers Expert Kiwi waist pack is a robust and sustainably minded solution for the modern professional. Designed for those who require immediate access to tools, documentation, or personal items while maintaining full freedom of movement, this pack is crafted from high-density recycled polyester. Its construction focuses on durability and security, ensuring that your essentials are protected from both the elements and potential digital theft, all while supporting environmental initiatives through its use of recycled materials.
Key Features
- EcoShield DWR Finish: This plant-based water repellent ensures that light rain beads off the surface, protecting your contents from moisture damage during outdoor tasks.
- Integrated RFID Security Pocket: Specifically designed to house sensitive items like passports and cards, this pocket blocks unauthorised scanning to keep your data secure while on the move.
- Substantial Recycled Fabric: The 900-denier polyester provides a tough, abrasion-resistant exterior that can withstand the daily grind of a busy workplace.
- Reflective Detailing: Subtle yet effective reflective elements increase your visibility to others in low-light environments, serving as a practical safety feature.
- Versatile Carry Options: The adjustable webbing strap allows the pack to be worn traditionally around the waist or across the body for modern convenience and comfort.
Design & Performance
The Expert Kiwi waist pack is engineered for longevity. The main body is constructed from a heavy-weight recycled polyester which, combined with a PU backing, provides a sturdy structure that does not sag when fully loaded. This internal coating also offers an additional layer of protection against dampness, ensuring the interior remains dry even in less-than-ideal weather conditions.
Attention to detail is evident in the inclusion of recycled zip tapes and external gear loops. These loops allow for the attachment of additional equipment or carabiners, making the pack a highly functional component of any professional's daily setup. Measuring approximately 28cm x 14cm x 10cm, it offers a compact footprint with surprising internal volume.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on this specific item to ensure the integrity of its technical features remains intact. The Expert Kiwi waist pack relies on a specialised PU coating and an RFID-blocking layer to provide its unique protective benefits. Introducing embroidery needles or high-temperature print processes could puncture the waterproof backing or damage the electronic-shielding fabric, ultimately compromising the very features that make this pack such a reliable piece of professional equipment.
Use Cases
This pack is an excellent choice for site managers, surveyors, and event staff who need to carry keys, handheld devices, and identification securely. Its professional, understated aesthetic makes it equally suitable for corporate travel, where the RFID security pocket provides essential peace of mind in busy transit hubs.

Practical Advice
For the best experience, we recommend adjusting the recycled polyamide strap so the pack sits snugly against the body; this prevents the weight from shifting during physical activity. Utilise the internal security pockets for your most valuable items, leaving the main compartment for frequently accessed tools or equipment. When using the gear loops, ensure any attached items are balanced to maintain comfort throughout the day.
Caring for your product
To preserve the performance of the EcoShield water-repellent finish and the internal PU backing, we recommend cleaning this waist pack with a damp cloth. A full machine wash can be overly abrasive and may strip away the protective coatings that keep your gear dry.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents, as these substances can break down the recycled polyester fibres and cause premature wear or discolouration. If the pack becomes wet, it should be allowed to air dry naturally. Subjecting the technical fabrics to direct heat from a radiator or tumble dryer can cause the materials to become brittle and lose their structural integrity.
