Porter-Yoshida & Co. – Rucksack Black

Porter-Yoshida & Co. has been providing customers with the highest quality of bags for decades, consistently prioritizing functionality and durability over all. To this day, the bags remain exclusively produced in Japan by skilled artisans who ensure each stitch is properly executed from beginning to end. Like all Porter-Yoshida & Co. products, the AW21 collection is characterized by a largely utilitarian aesthetic, ultimately furthering the brand’s timeless appeal. The Rucksack is a part of the brand’s Tanker series — which dates back to the ‘80s — as the line is known for using a three-layer fabric adopted by the US Air Force for its flight jackets. Pairing a nylon twill front with a polyester cotton middle and nylon taffeta back, the bag is noticeably lightweight and boasts a soft overall feel. The everyday style is outfitted with a series of pockets on the exterior and interior for optimal organization and finished with aluminum fasteners, snap buttons, and metal fittings, all of which are intentionally stripped of paint to allow a change in appearance over time.
