MONO Introduces New Stealth Backpack and Messenger Bag, Bringing Added Mobility and Protection for Musicians on the Go

The M80 Stealth Alias Backpack and M80 Stealth Relay Messenger Bag are thoughtfully designed for creators who need to move fast.

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE; THURSDAY, JULY 18, 2019 – MONO (monocreators.com), the IDSA award-winning designer of instrument cases and accessories, today announced two new bags in its Stealth line: the new Stealth Alias Backpack and Stealth Relay Messenger Bag. Building on the runaway success of the iconic FlyBy backpack and MONO’s well loved DJ messenger bags, MONO is excited to launch the two new models, that represent the peak of gear protection and sleek design.

The Stealth Alias Backpack and Stealth Relay Messenger Bag are the ideal lightweight yet sturdy bags for DJs, beatmakers, and music lovers alike. Offering the combination of protection and innovative design that MONO is known for, both bags are designed to fit everyday essentials – with space to spare for vinyl, tablets and devices. 

The Stealth Alias has a minimalist profile, designed with DJs and beatmakers in mind. Being 50% lighter than the FlyBy, the Alias is the ideal model for creators who refuse to compromise on organization. 

Meanwhile, the Stealth Relay is a modern essential for producers who want to travel lighter but keep their gear secured, thanks to the bag’s ample compartments and attachment points. 

The Alias and Relay are both ergonomically designed with adjustable shoulder straps to fit most builds.  

Randy Couvillon, Senior Manager, Global Channel Sales says: “The Stealth Alias and Relay bags are built for musicians and travellers who want to worry less about transporting their gear, and more on delivering their best work. No matter where you’re going, gigging in the city, or touring internationally, the latest from the Stealth line has you covered.

“Diving into the details of both bags: the hard case shell is designed to be super lightweight, and the bag straps are padded with hi-density foam for extra comfort. Inside the bags are hidden pockets and compartments, so everything you need is easily within reach. The pass-through belts are another neat design touch that lets you secure your bag on top of your luggage with no stress,” says Couvillon.

The Stealth Alias Backpack will retail for US$149.99, and the Stealth Relay Messenger Bag will retail at US$129.99. Both will be available in Fall 2019 through top dealers worldwide and at www.monocreators.com.
