Win a sustainable backpack

Whether you’re heading off on a city break or your next big adventure, the right bag makes all the difference. That’s why Portal North has teamed up with the brilliant people at Millican to give away one of their most-loved designs

Founded in the Lake District and named after the legendary fell walker and adventurer Millican Dalton, the brand makes bags for people who believe the journey matters as much as the destination.

Crafted with sustainability at their core, Millican designs are for conscious travellers who care about the impact they leave behind, on both the planet and the trail. Made from recycled plastic and cotton, with a fully recycled lining from post-consumer waste, it’s a bag you’ll feel good to be carrying.

We’re giving away a Smith Original Roll Pack, worth £115 – a beautifully crafted and sustainably made daypack that’s practical, stylish and built to last.

The 15L roll-top design expands to carry everything you need for a day out and works just as well on a commute as it does on a mountain trail.

The prize  

 A Millican Smith Original Roll Pack, 15L in Tarn.
