Ortlieb
Ortlieb is a German manufacturer that got started with a very close-to-earth way. In 1981 in Southern England a youngster called Hartmut Ortlieb was having a very wet bicycle touring experience and saw the need for waterproof panniers. As trucks were whizzing by, their tarps seemed to laugh at the rain that was soaking Hartmut’s gear…
Today Ortlieb makes a very wide assortment of waterproof products, ranging from camera bags to huge waterproof gear packs. Ortlieb products have won several tests around the world thanks to their detail and excellent quality. We at Scandinavian Outdoor Store can honestly recommend Ortlieb products for year-round use. Just to mention a couple of products, the Back Roller Classic panniers have proven to be reliable in tough use, and the Trunk Bag gives small items protection from the rain.
