THE DHOLE - BACKPACK/PANNIER BAG

THE DHOLE 

INSPIRED BY THE WILD DOG Of INDIA — THE MIGHTY DHOLE

Born from the spirit of India’s wild pack hunter.

A compact, balanced backpack built for the ride and everything beyond it. Handcrafted from 100% upcycled truck tire tubes and full-grain leather—tough, raw, and built to last. Classic, rugged, unmistakably Uptantra.

Built to adapt: multiple tactical loops with small leather belts—strap in what you need, where you need. A true hybrid—switch from pannier bag to backpack in seconds with heavy-duty metal D-hooks. Ride solo or run it as a pair.

Inside, it’s all business: main compartment, laptop sleeve, outer pouch, and quick-access zip pocket. Carries your daily arsenal—laptop + charger, 4 sets of clothes, small camera setup, water bottle—with room left for essentials.

Rain? Doesn’t care. Naturally water-resistant, rainproof zippers, ready for monsoons.

From highways to hikes, workdays to wild detours—DHOLE stays with the pack.

Highways, trails, work, or wild detours—DHOLE runs with the pack.

1. Cleaning Your Luggage

• Quick Clean: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dust.
• Deep Clean: Use mild soap and water with a soft brush to scrub away dirt. Rinse with clean water and let it air dry.

2. Waterproofing

• While tire tubes are naturally water-resistant, apply a rubber-safe waterproofing spray for extra protection after prolonged use.

3. Zipper Care

• Clean zippers periodically with a brush to remove dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if the zippers feel stiff.

4. Handling Tears and Ruptures

• In case of tears or punctures, your bag can be repaired just like a tire tube—with a patch! This eco-friendly material is easy to fix, keeping it functional for years.

5. Handling Minor Scratches

• Minor scratches are normal for upcycled material. For any major repairs, contact our support for sustainable repair options.

Yes, each bag is crafted with care and attention to detail by our in-house team.

At Uptantra, we’re so sure our gear can take whatever the road throws at it, we back it with a 2-year warranty. If the metal, plastic, or our upcycled tubes and leather ever let you down, we’ve got your back. We know what it’s like—riding hard, pushing limits—and our gear is built to handle it. If it fails due to a material or craftsmanship issue, we’ll either repair or replace it, no questions asked. But we didnt cover damage from rough handling or regular wear and tear. As for scratches, scuffs, or stains? That’s just part of the journey. A little grease, engine oil, or mud? That’s the badge of honor. And no, we won’t cover lost time, gear, or anything else that’s out of your control. This isn’t just gear, it’s tough, ride-ready equipment that stands the test of time—just like you.
