Bags
Adding bags of style to your rugged outdoor needs, the Ralph Lauren Nylon Utility Backpack sports a flat top with drawstring closure, adjustable leather straps with bottom buckle and a couple of generous utility side pockets with zippered tops. It boasts a 100% cotton navy blue outer, 100% nylon gut and the stitched logo of the iconic brand, finished beautifully with rich premium tan leather trim.
Reward yourself and your pals after a good long trek with a few icy cold suds courtesy of Topo Designs Urban Outdoor Pack. Forged from 1000d Cordura fabric and boasting a totally lined and waterproof inside, it also sports a detachable/collapsible 6-pack cooler. Looks cool enough to carry round the urban streets too, with its stylish leather-trimmed finish. And don't worry if you forget to pack a bottle opener (we always do), for it comes fitted with its very own custom designed lid-flipper.
Part weekender, part tote, part briefcase and total beauty. The Teranishi Day Tripper is handcrafted from two deliciously luxurious contrasting leathers - English bridle and Chromexcel - and boasts a roll-top snap button closure, strap attachable D-rings and a unique dual pocket that allows for access from inside or out. The edges are hand-dyed and burnished and the bag's finished with penned copper rivets. It will, like a fine wine or GearCulture man, only get better with age.

Pure man-bag class, the Whipping Post Vintage Messenger is constructed from 100 per cent vegetable tanned leather, houses an adjustable padded strap and boasts a newspaper pouch round back. Inside the suede-lined storage section will keep your laptop safe and snug. A versatile accessory that looks good slung over the shoulder of a razor sharp suit, or draped from a casual shirt.
A darn fine solution to a regular traveling/adventuring dilemma: which or how many bags should you take? The Boreas Gear Bootlegger Modular Pack System offers the solution, with three bags in one that attach to a single frame. All are waterproof and can be quickly and easily interchanged depending on your outdoor needs.
While our other halves have always been able to stick a girly basket to the front of their bikes, we've always been lumbered with an often cumbersome backpack or satchel. Until now. The Entrada Handlebar Bag affixes to the front frame and is available in two options - a flat padded panel or contoured pocket with waterproof zip. It's a man-basket for bikes.
Cords are coming back, and not just in pants. The Tribute Laptop Duffel is a tribute to the most casual and comfortable style the 60s ever produced - corduroy. It's a traditional corduroy bag in navy blue with the modern addition of a storage space for your 15" MacBook Pro. It's modern style with a vintage look.
Carry your computerized kit in style with the Hard Graft Laptop Folio. Crated from premium vegetable tanned leather and finished with a classy rich gray hue, there's plenty of room for laptop, gadgets, charger and pens and the ingeniously positioned hand strap makes for maximum comfort when on the go.
An absolutely gorgeous bag, the luxurious First & Company Weekend Discovery Duffel is crafted from the finest materials - the rich, Whisky Batido leather beautifully complemented by antique heavy duty brass rivets and bottom studs with a custom patina finish. Inside you'll find burgundy micro-fiber suede, all artfully hand stitched in California. Class and style, personified.
An understated, uber-cool carry case, the Modern Industry Conduit Sling Pack even doubles up as a stowable tote bag for groceries. The huge main compartment will easily fit a laptop or jacket and the exterior pocket provides easy access to your wallet, keys and phone. Forged from Martexin Original Wax, Army Duck canvas and Horween leather, it's not only tough, lightweight and waterproof, but environmentally friendly too.
