        Anyone see the new SDR Traveller Field Satchel?

        https://sdrtraveller.com/collections/luggage/products/field-satchel?variant=12553858646096
        Looks a lot like the JDM Gregory satchel that Jan has talked about in the past.

        I like the size, shape, and that it will weigh almost nothing. I think it fits in well with the SDR line and would be a good travel bag/flight bag.

                  Not sure why (maybe because I have a problem) but I started looking around at leather backpacks and stumbled on the Himel Algonquin:

                  https://himelbros.com/products/the-algonquin-backpack

                  I wish it was a little bigger but I like everything else.

                  Edit: I guess this Himel could tide me over until I sell a kidney and purchase a Bole

                    Front pockets are adjustable and roomy, and have pockets behind them. Interior has several pockets and allows cables to be routed externally (e.g. battery in pack routing charge cable to phone in your pocket or external pocket.

                    Added a belt key clip marketed to law enforcement to the front of the shoulder strap.

                    Evo of laminated face fabric:

                    In other news, got a custom container for my large battery, which has USB-C power delivery so that I can charge anything up to a laptop.

                      Looks good. I've always been a fan of that style of the Acronym messenger.

                        @veloaudio you could always ask Himel if he'd make you an XXL Algonquin. The pattern looks pretty simple, and I doubt that adding an inch or two here and there would be too hard.

                        If you want something bigger, the Lotuff Duffle Backpack is one of my favourites.

                        Yeah, I need a Bole too.

                            I saw Racing Atelier on Carryology the other day. Their Rucksack #1 is a mixture of natural leather and Dyneema, and looks lovely.

                            It's €1050, before you go rushing off to order one…

                              The use of Dyneema seems pointless.  Unless, of course, the point was to look cool, in which case, well done.

                                Probably also to offset the weight of the leather.

                                Anyone know Crafted Goods? This looks cool. They also have nice-looking rucksacks in the 25L range.

                                  The Carryology store in Melbourne carried Crafted Goods. I recall them looking good, and I think that they were well finished, but I haven't used any of their products.

                                      I'm biased but i've always been a fan of randoseru since I grew up in Japan. Every grade school child has one and by all accounts they're very well made. The colors are more varied nowadays but traditionally they were black for boys and red for girls. I had debated getting one for my son but given the cost and his propensity for destroying things I felt that it wouldn't be a good investment.

                                        I haven't seen that brand. It looks like it's well made in the video, as the leatherworker is doing a saddle-stitch by hand.

                                          KabanKo is the brand name, and their Instagram is https://instagram.com/kabanko_japan?utm_source=ig_profile_share&igshid=1nayx50tqyge4

                                          They have been at it for 130 years. It seems the government had something to do with this style of bag being adopted by schoolchildren in the 1880s.

                                          I read that Randoseru are so strongly associated with schoolchildren that an adult wearing one in Japan would be assumed to be doing so ironically. But regardless, the layout and the stability of it standing upright are great advantages for business use.

                                          And I agree that the construction appears to be very good. This style should be more common for business travel.

                                            You are correct. The Japanese adopted it from the Dutch and it is primarily used by school children. I've seen pictures of adults using randoseru, but I think those that use them are few and far between. The pic you posted appears to be aimed at working adults, obviously because of the leather but also because of the slimmer profile. I think the randoseru is also supposed to have ergonomic advantages as well. The kids randoseru's are expensive as hell too
