Introducing the Redeye 24 Backpack, our latest Matador®x Carryology® collaboration. Designed in just 24 hours for Carryology’s Maker’s Mystery Box Challenge, the Redeye proved too good to leave as a one-off. We loved how it carried, the community asked for it, and now — for one week only — it’s coming to life.

BUILT FOR THIS
Early mornings, long commutes, days that don’t slow down — the Redeye 24 is built to keep up. From the train to the office to the gym, the versatile carry system adapts as you move. Inside, clamshell access with limiter panels and a divided main compartment keep gear organized, while magnetic hardware and intuitive pocketing make every grab-and-go effortless.
Built in 24 hours, refined for a lifetime of carry.
The Redeye 24 started as part of Carryology’s Maker’s Mystery Box Challenge — a video series where designers are given a mystery box of components and just one day to design and build a functional backpack. Matador’s lead designer, Sam, took the challenge, pulling a 24-hour all-nighter (with just 3 hours of sleep) to bring the Redeye to life. The result was too good to leave as a one-off prototype, so we refined it for production.
What makes the Redeye 24 different from other Matador bags?
The Redeye 24 is a limited collaboration between Matador × Carryology, merging experimental design with real-world performance. Every feature — from its modular carry system to its intuitive pocketing — was refined from Sam’s original 24-hour build. It’s everyday carry, elevated by a one-of-a-kind origin story.
What is FIDLOCK® hardware?
FIDLOCK® creates premium magnetic fasteners known for their smooth, secure, and intuitive feel. The Redeye 24 uses FIDLOCK® hardware on its detachable shoulder straps and sternum strap, allowing you to swap carry modes or connect straps with a simple magnetic snap.
What makes the clamshell design unique?
Most clamshell bags open fully and spill everything out. The Redeye 24’s design uses limiter panels to create a controlled opening — giving you wide access to your gear while keeping contents contained. Inside, a divided main compartment makes organization easy without extra packing cubes.
How does the carry system work?
The Redeye 24 features a modular design that lets you switch between three carry modes — backpack, sling, or duffel. Detachable shoulder straps connect with FIDLOCK® Snap hardware for fast, secure transitions, and each mode carries comfortably for all-day use.
What size laptop fits in the magnetic laptop sleeve?
The padded magnetic laptop sleeve fits most 16-inch laptops and tablets. (Exact fit may vary by manufacturer and model.)
