Based on information online, it is made from Rains' signature waterproof PU fabric, which is durable and smooth. The rucksack has a rolltop opening with snap compression to keep precipitation out.

Usage and Experience
I have used the Rains Rolltop Rucksack Backpack for over a month since this post. I like that the design and build quality are good, and they are waterproof which keeps my stuff dry when it's raining.
The size of the backpack is good for everyday carry, which allows me to put the necessary stuff in when going out.
The front compartment zip is not easy to zip and unzip. This is likely due to being a waterproof bag.
I would like my backpack to be able to stand on its own, but unfortunately, this is not the case. It wasn't able to stand unless I put something heavy and flat that allowed it to stand.
