Greater Goods Might Be Our New Favorite Upcycling Brand
…t. Usual bits on my keys and a 2M Stanley tape measure (a true essential), Moleskine notebook, Leatherman multi-tool, Nalgene 1L bottle, black biro, drawstring pouch (for coins and other random bits) and an N95 mask. How do you stay inspired or motivated each day, even if the creative juices aren’t flowing or a particular project is proving tricky? Do you have particular routines or activities that help you stay productive? I tend not to fight thr…
Carrying My Thoughts
…er, and easier to bear. I carry three notebooks, most days. I use a small Moleskine Cahier (same size as the classic Field Notes) for quick notes and a larger A5 journal (I like Rhodia) for my daily writing. The last one is a pocket diary for dates, plans, and appointments. This is arguably the most important since it also helps keep things organized, keeping me on plan and in control. Have a system Being naturally rather disorganized is both a c…
Carry Awards X Top 5 | Best Shoulder Bag
…ructed. Custom Duraflex® buckles, YKK® metaluxe zippers, and even a custom Moleskine notebook inside the briefcase. This feels like a wonderfully premium product. The Robic® nylon is highly water resistant so you know your electronics are safe, and the internal nylon twill is ever so slightly padded to add some extra protection. One of my favourite things about the Émigré briefcase is that it has just enough organisation. Not too much, and not too…
Émigré | Modern Professional Travel Gear, Elevated (+Giveaway)
…to round out the premium feel. Each briefcase comes with a limited edition Moleskine notebook, and you can turn this into a backpack for those longer commutes by adding Émigré’s wonderful backpack straps. The Folio Briefcase is a step up from the standard briefcase, in both design and construction. From the quilted interior padding that is reminiscent of a luxury jacket all the way to the hidden fleece lined accessory pocket on the front of the ba…
How Two British Brands Fixed the Flaws in a Menswear Classic
…to twenty bank notes, while the notebook cover fits standard A6 soft-cover Moleskine notebooks perfectly. The Anti-Fashion Philosophy Perhaps most importantly, this collaboration represents something increasingly rare: the anti-fashion approach. FRAHM operates on a simple principle—they upgrade classic men’s jacket styles, period. No seasonal collections, no trend-chasing, no pressure to reinvent every six months. They make each design once a year…
Road Tests :: Topo Designs Rover Pack
…such a nice size, measuring about 6 x 10″, able to hold everything from my Moleskine notebook and pens, to sunglass cases. I prefer the front, lower, compartment better since loading it with weight did not at all affect the balance of the bag. The top compartment is part of the front flap of the bag, and depending on the size and weight of the contents, could cause the bag to swing and sway while you walked, or when you put the bag down. Often at…

…paper and paper deliverables, a slim USB hard drive with no power cord, a Moleskine, and a pen. All this can be carried in one hand, neatly. In fact, I like the look of the four visual elements together. What you see is what you get. All four items mean business. Carrying a bag with my day to day is like bringing along a lead weight where I roam. What do you do with it when you get to a movie theatre, a bar, a restaurant, into a taxi filled with…

I carried: scarf, gloves, pens, Moleskine, Doane Paper notepad, Canon Elph, Panasonic LX3, Canon SLR and 2 lens all in a camera bag, Microsoft Zune HD, USB flash drive, Kindle, 2 magazines, airline boarding passes, Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10, keys, and a handful of other miscellaneous items. Most of the smaller items were placed in the rear laptop section and their compartmentalization really kept things o…

…non 40D, 50mm f1.4 prime, 28-135 lens, cleaning cloth, lens pen, Lamy pen, Moleskine notebook, extra battery, extra memory card, and business cards. Honestly, this is all I really need for the few hours during a meal. I am really not digging the trend of moving towards large bags, especially ones with the lack of pockets for organization. Shoulder Strap: The strap is great. It is just long enough to wear over the shoulder and have the bag hang com…
Drive By :: Topo Designs Daypack
…, it was a dream come true. In those organization pockets, I carry: a pen, Moleskine notebook, business card holder, Doane Paper notepad, and flash drives. Speaking of the inside panel, it’s made of a coated pack cloth liner. The outside is 1000D CORDURA nylon fabric which can stand up to fading, abrasion, rot, and mildew. It’s highly water repellent and dries quick if you happen to get it wet. This means I am comfortable throwing the bag down on…
Road Tests :: Clothing Arts P^cubed Adventure Pants (?!)
…t me. I am carrying stuff that makes sense to me in my daily life; a small Moleskine, some pens, moustache wax, maybe a lighter, some other stuff. This may seem trivial to most people, but I’m a carry geek who writes for Carryology and my full-time job is focused on various forms of carry, so yeah…I’m a nerd. I’ve gone so far as to take every pair of jeans I own to the local alterations shop, and have them add a 6th pocket on the left side. Maybe…
Road Tests :: DEFY BAGS Recon Messenger
…everything I own has a nice little spot. Mints, one of the drop pockets. 2 Moleskine, same. Three pens drop into the horizontal seatbelt webbing. The tiny pockets in the seatbelt webbing I haven’t used much. They would be good to keep business cards that you collect. Personally I keep my business cards in a small metal case I received as a gift, so that they stay crisp, and my card case doesn’t fit in there. So I keep the case in one of the drop p…

…ime required, but I’ll talk about that later. Out comes the camera and the Moleskine for notes. While Falcon sets up his work station, Christian suggests we grab one of the massive leather hides down off the shelf to craft me up a handmade belt before our time was up. The offer is hard to pass up. Guy and Christian take on this task, slicing a strip of thick beautiful vegetable tanned English bridle leather, into a long wide strip (about 1.5″ wide…

I find this case excellent to use if your bag doesn’t have a lot of organizers. It’s also fantastic for traveling…

…a pair of sunglasses or a diving watch. I would not put my smartphone or a Moleskine in there. Organization I am a sucker for organization. I’d rather have the pockets than not. If I don’t use them, no harm done. The Chrome bag alleviates the problem of sacrificing pockets for a larger main compartment in a clever way. In addition to the two large outside pockets, it also has a laptop insert with organization pockets in front. The sleeve fits a 15…

I could fit a hand in if I tried, but good luck trying to identify or retrieve anything. Accessibility: The Flap Jack looks more like a messenger than most packs, so I was hoping that it would be great for access on the go (as messengers are). Disappointingly, this didn’t really turn out. When I was in the…
