Haversack



Pronunciation:
\ˈha-vər-ˌsak\
Function:
noun
Etymology:
French havresac, from German Hafersack bag for oats, from Haber oats + Sack bag
Date:
1749
: a bag similar to a knapsack but worn over one shoulder

Our new japanese import is so much more than a sackful of oats. Being hailed in London as the next big thing, Haversack is inspired by early 20th century american army and workwear with a healthy obsession for impeccable details. The fabrics are soft but robust, the silhouettes easy and flowing. This is really as fresh as they come.
