Bags : Duluth Scout Back Pack
The ability to carry one’s necessaries seems ever more of a minefield, looking for the practical and desirable whilst not breaking the bank, or straying too far into the realm of the metrosexual.
Recently, Barbour have come up trumps with a number of bags and briefcases, notably the Tarras, while Filson repeatedly produce some classic shapes. There’s still nothing wrong with the classic Jansport and Eastpak for U.S. campus chic, Fjallraven retro or, at a stretch, Invicta for that Italian exchange student turnout. We’ve even been tempted by a Tote or two in recent months.
However, we think we’ve found a serious contender in an American classic brand, Duluth, and more specifically their Scout Back Pack. Hand made and durable, with a lifetime guarantee, it looks great and does exactly what it says on the tin. Duluth have recently produced a collab for Heritage Research which can be found online or in many of the usual suspects. For the classic, buy direct if you’re in the States, or check Tamarack for UK stock. Hard to beat, and top of our list for the Autumn.
