Solar panel backpacks seem to be the hipster accessory of choice these days. Polo purveyors Ralph Lauren won’t get left behind by the trend, so the clothing giant recently outed its own RLX Solar Panel Backpack. True to the Ralph Lauren aesthete, this baby’s gonna cost lotsa dough.
Crafted in Italy using a water resistant fabric, the RLX has a solar panel to charge your gadgets. This comes super handy when you’re trapped in a crevasse james Franco style and need to juice your phone to get help.
Beyond crazy references to last year’s movies, the RLX is available in black and orange. We foresee moneyed college kids and stylish outdoors types embracing this kind of luggage. Problem is it doesn’t look like it would sit well on long treks in the deep woods. In short, a 20″x14″ bag that has an earphone socket underneath the strap is for the urban cowboy who won’t go anywhere without a laptop.
An RLX will set you back $795.
