Paris meets N.Y.C. in the form of this hip/waist bag from Manhattan Portage for Paris’ “fixed” shop, Cyclope. A bit of camo on the bag. It features a co-lab logo and is paced to be worked over season to season. Something small.
Back in 90’s I used to hit raves with a box school-bag style backpack from Manhattan Portage. My good friend from Japan brought it over. They were tough to find in Boston back then. Today, the company continues output from their NYC based office working at a less pushy pace than most. This cordura hiker in camo is damn good and necessary.
I got blocked on taking photos of these backpacks so I’ll refer to Zozo. The MP1210 backpacks are a simple double label variety for the Japan market. They’re made in the USA from 60/40 cotton/nylon for durable rocking. A simple look that works.
