Carry smarter, in less space, pared down with just the right amount of stuff in tow. And do it in a way that just might make people suspect you're running black ops and mean business.
Meet Slim. Slim is DEFY's smallest and quite possibly smartest briefcase to date. Why? Because we overly manufactured Slim to be a badass, plain and simple. Just because Slim is slim that doesn't mean Slim can't throw down. Slim's a lean, mean, packin' machine who's not from around these parts and if I were a betting man I'd put my money on Slim in a briefcase brawl. Ya here?!
Slim comes correct with killer dual oversized, easy to access YKK zippers that zip the entirety of the bag, making the interior uber easy to access in cases where time is of the essence. The zippers are made from a Water-Resistant rubber that won't scratch your 13" MacBook or Tablet. Slim is Hand-Crafted in Chicago from Water-Resistant 1,050 Denier MIL-SPEC Ballistic Nylon material. Sorry water, find somewhere else to flow! This is by far the most amazingly durable material we've ever used and tested. It's the same material used by the U.S. Military, Special Forces and SWAT Teams. Slim wears it as a badge of honor. The interior is lined with water and scratch resistant, hi-vis ECOPAK™ EPX Bright Orange 'Fire' 200 Denier Waterproof 100% recycled lining; Looking tough doesn't mean you can't do good along the way. The computer section is fully padded on both sides and has a steel, matte black military rifle gun clip key holder and pockets for good measure. The rear of the bag has a MIL-SPEC webbing 'Trolley Strap' for attaching Slim to your luggage handle in airports. Slim is the perfect companion for those looking to DEFY overpacking and pack a punch at the same time.
PROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA
What is Ballistic Nylon?
What we know today as Ballistic Nylon is a multifilament high tenacity, 2X2 basket weave nylon fabric, usually made with 1050D or 840D yarns. The name Ballistic goes back to the Vietnam war era when it was used for anti-fragmentation ballistic jackets for the military. Multiple layers of the thick fabric were laminated together to help stop exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. By the late ’70s the military upgraded their armor to lightweight Kevlar® and ceramic plate technology that could stop actual bullets. Then in the ’80s Ballistic Nylon had found its way into the consumer market. At a time when heavy-duty, strong luggage was the flavour of the day, the term ballistic struck a chord with customers and the name stuck. The slick finish, heavy weave and excellent strength still make it a popular choice today, although as a single layer fabric it’s lost most of its actual ballistic credentials.
