Finding a good, solid bag is an infuriating experience – especially as mine crapped out yesterday with the strap falling off completely. Fortunately for us, Bed Stu has sent their Rusty Bag over, a solid canvas adventure bag with leather accents. We say adventure bag as it’s one of those go-anywhere, do-anything, survive-any-fall bags, and while we haven’t put it thoroughly through the wringer yet, it’s already looking pretty good. Available online now.
[...] I was asked to model for Bed:Stu shoe company. My dear friend Nicole Beltrami is their publicist and asked me to work it work it for an afternoon. That was fun..and I got some killer shoes out of the deal. We got some press here and here. [...]
I almost fell off my chair reading the review. I had a similar experience with my so called “adventure bag” on a biking trip. The Rusty Bag does look sturdy and the leather accents should add to durability. Since I prefer backpacks, I have been considering one from Briggs & Riley’s new BRX collection to replace my old adventure bag. It’s just been launched and I am waiting for some reviews before I buy it.
