Eastpak | Backpacks for Commuters

Wearing - Easkpak Floid Backpack c/o size?, Albam Sweatshirt, Carhartt Trousers, Levi's T-Shirt,  Northern Goods Co. Key Clip, Helmet, Timex Weekender Watch, Vintage Leather Gloves.

Just a quick post today as I'm feeling pretty under the weather and I've got a mountain of photos to edit, from the last couple of weeks. After several repairs to the left strap of my Dicota backpack, due to tares from everyday use (we're talking use every single day, for a while it carried two laptops and an slr!), I've landed upon this sturdy bit of kit by Eastpak. It's got room for a laptop, is super lightweight and has umpteen pockets + compartments.

I've only taken it for a spin a couple of times so I can't pass full judgement just yet, but I'll be putting it to the test over the next few months. Its first big challenge will be on our trip to Orlando next month! Do you rate Eastpak products or any other products for commuters?

Thank you for reading.

  2. I have an Eastpak backpack (the basic one, I don't remember what it's called) which I really liked, the straps are nice and padded, but the top handle started falling off after a while. I still use it when I need something bigger than my Kanken though, it's good as a carry-on for flights.

  4. Get better soon! I use my boyfriend's Eastpak for work every day as I commute and he doesn't (grr) and it's pretty resilient! The colour is beginning to fade a little but after being out in all seasons for so long I can't complain! x

  7. even though it says "usa" on the eastpack label, i have not seen any around since i moved to america, while in europe everybody (seriously, every single kid at my high school) wore them. mine has been through a lot of beaches, mountains, pools, sleepovers and airplane rides. and thousands of textbooks. if it's giulia-proof, i'm sure it must be high quality!
