Head Porter, the famed Japanese bag makers, are back with a new collection of vintage military-styled bags. Its design comes from Buzz Rickson, the company responsible for Sugar Cane Denim, as well as iconic flight jackets and Army attire dating back to the WWII era.

The material is the same nylon used in the military’s bulletproof vests, which is five times as strong as the normal nylon found in everyday wear. The accents use genuine horse leather similar to that on Buzz Rickson’s A-2 jackets. Both bags come complete with a miniature Porter MAG light on the zipper, plenty of inner and outer pockets and removable shoulder straps.

Tonke of Holland manufactures eco-friendly campers that offer a timeless look and lifestyle. Completely handcrafted, for its old-world styling there are plenty of modern facilities that combine comfort with classic looks. Luxurious features include polished mahogany fittings, teak wood floors, porcelain sinks and fully chrome faucets.

Inspired by old yachts and gypsy caravans, Tonke offers two different models—the Explorer (fitted for the Renault Master van) and the longer Fieldsleeper (fitted for […]
