AD196 adidas Hybrid Backpack | Branded Golf and Business Bag
Product Description
AD196 Hybrid Backpack – adidas | Premium Branded Business & Golf Backpack
Premium adidas Backpack for Business, Golf, Travel and Team Use
The adidas AD196 Hybrid Backpack is a premium multi-purpose backpack designed for people who need to carry work, golf and everyday essentials in one practical, professional bag.
Made from 100% recycled polyester plain weave, the AD196 combines the recognisable adidas design with useful organisation, comfortable padded straps and dedicated space for a laptop. A front zip pocket and slip-in side pockets keep frequently used items accessible, while the top and side carry handles give you multiple ways to carry the bag.
Originally designed with golfers in mind, its versatile layout makes it equally useful for business travel, corporate teams, golf clubs, events, hospitality, leisure businesses and branded team equipment.
For businesses looking to create premium branded accessories rather than another generic promotional bag, the AD196 offers a much stronger combination of brand recognition, practical functionality and everyday usability.
Why Choose the adidas AD196 Hybrid Backpack?
A Premium Alternative to Generic Promotional Bags
A backpack is something your customers, employees or members may use every day.
That makes the choice of bag more important than it might initially appear. A cheap promotional backpack can quickly become something that gets left in a cupboard, whereas a recognised adidas product has genuine everyday appeal.
The AD196 gives your branding a premium platform while providing a bag people are likely to continue using long after the initial event or campaign.
Designed for More Than Just Golf
Although the AD196 was developed as a golf backpack, its practical design makes it much more versatile.
The combination of a laptop sleeve, multiple pockets, padded shoulder straps and carry handles means it can work equally well as a business backpack, team backpack, travel bag or corporate gift.
That gives businesses considerably more flexibility when deciding how to use branded backpacks.
Made from Recycled Polyester
The AD196 is made from 100% recycled polyester plain weave.
For businesses looking to make more considered choices when purchasing branded merchandise or team equipment, recycled polyester provides a useful alternative to conventional virgin polyester.
It is a genuine product characteristic rather than simply a generic sustainability claim.
Dedicated Laptop Storage
The integrated laptop sleeve makes the AD196 particularly relevant to modern business use.
Employees can use the same backpack for commuting, meetings, travel and day-to-day work rather than needing a separate laptop bag.
That makes it a particularly useful option for businesses supplying branded equipment to mobile or hybrid teams.
Comfortable for Everyday Carrying
The backpack features padded adjustable shoulder straps and a chest strap, helping distribute the load more comfortably when the bag is being carried for longer periods.
The additional top and side carry handles also give the wearer alternative carrying options.
Practical Storage Without Overcomplication
The AD196 keeps its organisation relatively straightforward.
A front zipped pocket provides secure access to smaller items, while the slip-in side pockets are useful for items that need to remain accessible. The main compartment provides the space for larger everyday equipment.
The result is a bag that is practical without becoming unnecessarily complicated.
adidas Gives Your Branding More Visibility
For businesses, one of the biggest advantages of choosing the AD196 is the product itself.
Rather than putting a company logo onto an anonymous promotional backpack, you're branding a recognisable adidas product that already has strong consumer awareness.
That makes it particularly suitable for premium corporate gifts, golf events, sponsorships, team equipment and customer-facing merchandise.

Is the adidas AD196 suitable for corporate gifts?
Yes. Its adidas branding, practical design and recycled polyester construction make it particularly well suited to premium corporate gifting, golf days, sponsorships, conferences and customer programmes.
Can the AD196 be branded with a company logo?
Yes. The backpack can be professionally customised with your company branding.
For the cleanest premium result, we would recommend discussing the logo position and decoration method before production, particularly because backpack panels, seams and pockets can affect the most suitable branding area.
Is embroidery suitable for the AD196?
Yes. Professional embroidery can create a premium, durable finish, particularly for a relatively simple company logo.
However, the best decoration method depends on the size and complexity of your artwork and the exact position required.
Can the AD196 be printed?
Yes. Print can be a useful option where the artwork is larger, more detailed or contains gradients.
We can advise on the most appropriate decoration method before production.

Is the AD196 waterproof?
It should not be described as waterproof.
The product information identifies the recycled polyester construction but does not specify a waterproof rating or waterproof membrane. If your team requires genuine weather protection, we would recommend choosing a backpack specifically designed for waterproof performance.

The current product information recommends sponge cleaning only.
Is the AD196 suitable for everyday commuting?

That gives your branding a more premium foundation and increases the likelihood that employees, customers or event participants will continue using the bag after the initial campaign.
Can I buy the AD196 without branding?
Yes. The product is available to order plain or branded, depending on your requirements.
