Rucksack Village®

I don't think I will ever get tired of this view or taking photos of it. It's insane, rain or shine, it looks amazing. I didn't realize at the time I took the bottom photo but those dew drops look sick!

Pack 003: Big Space

Short wide pack in progress.

Here’s Molly’s pack in the wild! Thanks Molly!

here’s a unipack i made as a warm up for the day. it’s up for sale, so if you’re keen hit me up at rucksackvillage@gmail.com!

i love green cast denim and i love boro.

The very beautiful Vik did a shoot with Harvey Shepherdson-Beck in London and came back with these super rad photos. Thanks so much guys!

Here’s a school/day-hiking pack I built for Ruby. The exterior is fully 1000D Cordura, which Francli’s Singer from the 1930s handled beautifully. It was really fun to the make this one. Thanks Ruby!

It’s been a while since I’ve updated the website!

Here’s a pack I built for Tats. I’m stoked about this pack since it’s made using less stitches per inch and I really like the aesthetic of the denser stitches. 

Ali from Francli Craftwear flew over to spend some time on the west coast. Here’s a few snaps from our camp out at Joshua Tree.

Here’s a unipack I built using my favorite color combination: blue, white pink. The pink starburst fabric, I found in Tokyo years ago, is very aged and has some cool discoloration happening with it. Slings are super fun to make!

This might have to be the coolest photo taken of my pack. In the Sahara desert. Thanks Jude!!!

Here’s the pack I built for Jeni. She’s one that likes to carry a lot of things, just in case. So this guy has a bunch of places to put those things. I’m stoked with how this guy turned out!

I thought the chainstitched RV mark was pretty cool on the packs, then one day I realized that all the stuff I doodle for fun can be incorporated into my backpacks via embroidered patches. I never figured out a way to mix my doodles with my pack designs in a way I liked and now I have. Stoked!
