The ACE Hotel Dopp Kit from Japan’s Porter may give the Filson travel dopp bag a run for its money. The sturdy canvas bag features three internal card pockets, a full sized zipper and room to stuff in the powders, shavers and toothpaste for your next jaunt through the minefields of travel. A leather inlay finished it nicely. Find it in the ACE online shop.

So here it is, the last of the Limoland/Porter SS10 collection. We’ve espoused our opinions on Limoland’s love of the colours several times over now and, like most Limoland pieces, is a little marmite. We do like the shape of the cases, but we’re not so crazy about the blinding whiteness. It looks a bit too new, if you know what we mean. Thankfully, there’s an ipod case in a much calmer purple, which you can see after the leap.

Tote or backpack? That’s the question writers and bloggers are asking themselves. Our thoughts? backpack all the way. They’re easier to work with, just put it on your back and you’re done. We’re a little pedantic about the details, so we prefer it hanging off one shoulder as opposed to the ’straight from school’ look. Tote bags are the sort of item that looks great in a fashion editorial, but fussy and annoying in real life. With that said, we still appreciate a good tote bag when we see it.

These ones are part of the ongoing Limoland/Yoshida Porter collab that we’ve been previewing lately. Like the other bags, it’s a lot more subdued than what we’ve come to expect from Limoland and it’s all the better for it. Look for these to ‘drop’ around January.

Here’s an exclusive look at some new Limoland/Yoshida Porter boston bags for SS10. We quite liked Limoland’s philosophy of only collaborating with the best within their chosen fields, but the colours used were a little garish for our tastes. That’s why we’re such big fans of this beige boston bag. It’s still unique enough to stand out of the bag crowd, but it does it in a far more subtle manner.

For fans of the old colours though, there’s a better-than-you-think-it’d-be yellow version after the leap.
