    Sattlerei Mathias Steinhauser offer a few rucksacks in the Kolesch deerskin that's used for the Big Buck shirt. I've been eyeing up the Jagdrucksack for the last few days. Shame it's €1000…

    Although I prefer this one that was posted to his Instagram feed.

    I've seen pictures of Haraki's deerskin shirt, and the dye has rubbed off with wear. I'm thinking that the above (in black) could be really cool.

        Carryology have another collaboration, this time with Trakke. It's a made from a UHMWPE fabric, with orange accents, including a custom Lochcarron tartan, which you can see on the patch.

        For the cool kids there's going to be a version that uses the orange tartan as the exterior fabric.

        It's an interesting bag, but I feel as though a lot of these Carryology designs are overly complicated and could stand to lose a bunch of their features without really compromising functionality.

          I agree mate. Not sure about this one.

          I have all the Mystery Ranch collaborations they have done. All are great.

          Not really convinced by this one though as seems overly complicated. Also, that orange tartan is disgusting!

            Is there anyone owning the Filson Duffle in size medium? What are your thoughts on this? I'm considering getting one for my daily use to carry sports stuff (I play TT in a club) and use it for that occasional weekend trip.

              X-PAC is where it’s at. Just love how much I can haul with this combo and the duffel packs down into its own pocket.

              Think it, be it.

                Is that the TAD Azimuth?

                  I can’t recall the name but maybe—whatever TAD it is they did a ruck and a duffel and they are minimalistic and wonderful. The other bag is Defy Verbockel and it’s damn near perfect for a carry on.

                    Def the Azimuth. Always wanted one! Sadly by the time I went to buy from Heinnie they had sold out.

                    Heard good things about the Verbockel

                      Looking for a quality leather tote with a laptop sleeve that can go into backpack mode, for my wife.

                      I found a Gurkha that I like, but think she may need something roomier. Ideas?

                      Think it, be it.

                                @fatpaulh which one? I used to have the OG rucksack but the leather split on the strap. Filson did right by replacing it but I sold the new one.

                                    @mclaincausey I can't think of any leather totes that convert into backpacks.

                                    Cote & Ciel did the Moser in black leather, but it seems to be sold out in most places. It's a circular backpack whose straps can be stowed or detached to use as a tote. Havn have one in Melbourne, though I suspect it would be cheaper to source in the US.

                                    https://havnstore.com/products/moselle-alias-leather-black

                                    Hardgraft do the 2Unfold, which can be converted between a tote and backpack and various other styles of carry. I had one a while back, and they're really a laptop sleeve more than anything else.

                                    https://www.hardgraft.com/collections/laptop-bags-briefcases/products/2unfold-offgrey

                                    Kika NY have a few packs that look a bit like a tote but aren't a tote. The Road Tripper is currently on sale.

                                        Nice one @Graeme re:Frank Clegg. I’ve always wondered how their pieces were in regards to fit, finish, and quality.

                                          I've seen a couple of pieces, and they're very well-made but on the heavier side. I think that the English Backpack would last a long time (I'd hope so at the price), and could probably be repaired if it got damaged.
