I am a huge fan of Duluth Pack, an outdoor gear company from Minnesota. Their selection of backpacks and bags, from biking and canoeing bags to luggage, is just remarkable. I also love their utilitarian and classically designed gear. Take a look!
P.S. Check out this collaboration they did with YMC for more pretty bags. Oh and their super cool original sketches from the company archives.

i have one of their packs for schoolbooks. they’re so well made and durable, plus two straps are better for your back than one!
appropriately, i see a lot of these around, and can attest to their durability. do you know about sketchbook bags? they are designed by a girl here in minneapolis, made from wool and leather. some have a similar style, with so much sophistication and lots of really finely crafted details.
I LOVE Duluth pack. I have a Duluth Pack purse (this one in khaki http://duluthpack.com/accessories/handbags-purses/deluxe-shell-bags.html).
The quality is unbeatable, their products have a beautiful, rugged quality, and they’re Made in the USA!
Love them! They last forever! Actually, I’m from Duluth, so I might be slightly biased!!
Thank you for the post and for being fans! We have been in Duluth since 1882 and this summer will be 100 years in the same factory! We really appreciate your kinds words.
Love these! That green one is making my heart flutter.
When I read this post I had one of those “how did I not know about this company” moments. I do a lot of hiking and am always on the lookout for gear that is functional and attractive. Thanks so much!
