20130315-091347.jpg

No longer a traveling solution just for DJs, Carhartt WIP and UDG recently expanded their collaborative luggage collection to include Travel Trolley in Small and Medium, in addition to the Slingbag, and all-time DJ’s favorite, the Slingbag Trolly Deluxe. Now in Carhartt‘s original “Island Camouflage”, each comes sizable compartments as well as copious amount of storage, both inside and out. Made to last in either famously durable duck canvas or polyester cloth, each is resistant to water, dust, dirt, and occasional spilled drinks. Along with the new camo pattern, the collection is still available in black or the traditional Carhartt Brown. Available soon here

Lexdray Autumn Winter 2012 Collection

20121017-070203.jpg

In my opinion Lexdray is second to none… I spent a very long time searching for the best backpack to service my needs and the huge amount of traveling I do, and with the launch of their new 2012 winter collection its time to add to my luggage. Featuring a brand new lineup of bags and accessories. The new collection features the London Garment bag, a redesigned Boulder Pack, the Sao Paulo Sling bag, the Oxford Suiter bag and the Monte Carlo wallet. The London Garment bag is a traveling wardrobe designed to carry suits, dress shoes and all the other necessities for dressing well on the road. A drop-down design means it can be hung on a door for easy access to all the contents within. The redesigned Boulder Pack breaks rank with the rest of the range with a tan colourway and features a host of pockets and storage options for carrying the daily essentials. The Sao Paulo Sling is designed as a small daily carryall and can be easily worn slung over one shoulder. The Oxford Suiter is a light garment bag designed to accommodate two suits with space for cuff-links clips and ties. Rounding out the collection is the Monte Carlo wallet, a slim wallet with multiple slots to accommodate cards and currency and an elastic band to keep the wallet compact. All the new pieces feature Lexdray’s attention to detail and top-notch construction.

The North Face ‘Back to Berkeley’ Backpacks

20120716-185634.jpg

We have seen The North Face Back to Berkeley series dominated by boots in the past; however, they are extending the line to include backpacks. In a similar fashion that the footwear pays respect to the homage of the outdoor brand, these backpacks are a reincarnation of their classic backpack design. Hidden inside the minimal silhouette is the drawstring compartment on the interior. The exterior is made from canvas material, which has been coated to offer water resistance and durability. Thick suede leather makes up the bottom of the bag and zipper pulls. Three colorways are currently in available at oki-ni online shop for pre-order with the delivery taking place in October.
