The Textured Classic backpack puts a unique twist on our classic layout with an antique marble body pattern with gray accents and a black suede finish. The body pattern, inspired by the intricate weaving styles of South Asia, replicates the 'thread bleeding' effect common to the handicrafts of these ethnic communities. The two front pockets as well as the central pocket provide plenty of storage space. Side zipper entry allows for easy entry into the main pocket. A subtle yet sophisticated variation of our classic design.
The pack is full size and is designed to accomodate the typical school/college student (18" x 12" x 7").
For every backpack you buy, we'll donate a year's worth of textbooks to a child in need.

At Jatalo, we sell culturally-inspired products to support the education of underprivileged children around the world. Today, millions of children globally are being left behind due to lack of a basic education. Even children who receive aid for tuition are often forced to attend school without proper textbooks and supplies, and as a result, dropout rates are high. In fact, research has proven that access to appropriate textbooks and materials is a primary determinant in ensuring the continuation of a child's education.
We've adopted a simple and effective model to address this
problem. For every backpack we sell, we donate a year's worth of textbooks to a child in need. For every bracelet we sell, we donate one textbook to a child in need. We work directly with affiliate schools in India, Thailand, Haiti, and Tanzania to ensure that the kids that need the support receive it.
Furthermore, you know a Jatalo backpack when you see one. When designing our products, we draw inspiration from art styles from around the world. We undergo a methodical research process and do our best to infuse these art styles into backpack designs for you to enjoy!
