Luggage Bags and Packs

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.

Have you checked out Portland leather?

@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.

think it’s called rip stop backpack.. perfect dad bag for days out with the kiddos…

@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.

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.

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.

Graeme always delivers. Thank you some good options here.

She got the Portland plus a laptop sleeve for under $200 on a President’s Day sale. She wouldn’t let me spoil her with a fancy option but I think this will be great. Thanks for the assists folks.

Carryology are doing a collaboration with GORUCK that's made from a custom 15 oz Sashiko denim.
There's a write-up of the project at Carryology, and it's worth a read because it is completely insane in a good way.
The bags go live at 2 pm Eastern Time on Thursday.

Not leather but Bellroy do the following which looks nice
I bought my Mrs a leather Tumi backpack which she really liked and used for years. Pretty sure it had a laptop sleeve. Might be worth checking to see if they do a 2 way tote.

@goosehd I could not see it on design article I read the other day.
On the basis the last Carryology x GR1 (Kaidan - X-Pac) I bought was circa $350 incl shipping and their collaborations seem to be getting more expensive (sure the revolting Trakke one was £400 to £500), I am anticipating that this one will be at least $450 for the GR1. It looks very nice and I am sorely tempted, but I will likely tap out if too expensive!
