The purple daypack has been one of those things I've wanted for myself for a loooooong time, so I'm pretty pleased with myself right now. That and the peacoat are my babies, so I'm pretty excited at how nice they're all turning out. There are certain colors that just look devastatingly nice in suede, purple is definitely one of them.

yeah it is, it'd be really great on those with sand-ier hair and complexions and clothing color palettes. I picture people wearing these this summer with just a white tee or something and they'll still really pop out and look fantastic.

I'm not really a backpack guy but after constantly carrying around heavy **** and seeing how nice these look I really want to change my mind about that. Purple looks awesome every time I see it.

a lot of guys talked about a black lamb backpack, but only one guy stepped up and laid down a pre-order. There's a possibility I might do it, then there's the possibility I might have to just give the guy his money back and cancel that idea if no one else steps up for one. They are $325.

I really want a moody teal suede backpack so I'd like that, and then I'd also like a veal calfskin with hair still intact, in white with brown spots, aka my fur backpack, so I will probably run on those. The fur backpacks will look white and marbled looking. Not sure how much the latter will be but the teal suede will still be $275.

I am gonna finalize some other bag designs I've always wanted to do, and come out with those. A soft duffle bag and maybe something else.

Sounds awesome. I might jump on board with the washed lamb or the teal. I'm regretting selling my eggplant backpack a bit now. I really needed a bag to wear year long and I didn't think I could pull off the purple even though I love the color.

ditto Also, anyone shorter/broader copped yet? Everyone so far is either >5'11" or <150lbs. One more: chicks in leather photos?

stop it. Some prorsum trenches are rubberized silk too

the classic burerry trench though is a poly cotton mix and I love it because even if I get soaked, it dries off in like one night and keeps me dry. A 100% cotton trench would be useless.

That's exactly what I was thinking.
