British bag specialistAlly Capellino has spent more than four decades proving that practicality and good design needn’t be mutually exclusive. Founded in 1980, the London brand is known for understated bags and accessories that favour timeless design over passing trends, crafted from materials chosen to look better with age.

Now, one lucky Square Mile reader can win one of the brand’s signature designs: the Hoy Travel Cycle Backpack, worth £265.

Designed with the urban commute in mind – whether you travel by bike, train, bus or foot – the Hoy is made from lightweight, water-resistant recycled nylon and packed with clever details.

Inside, two tech pockets are joined by a dedicated sleeve capable of securely holding a 15-inch device, while waterproof zips help keep your essentials protected from the vagaries of British weather.

Cyclists are particularly well catered for, thanks to an external reflective strip and bike-light D-ring. Comfortable adjustable webbing straps allow it to be worn as a conventional backpack, while Italian bridle-leather top handles transform the Hoy into a smart tote when you arrive at your destination.

Understated, versatile and built for everyday use, it’s the sort of bag that makes the morning commute just that little bit more civilised.
