HAVEN'T RATED
Is it too much to ask for a functional weekender that looks good and won’t make you wince at the price tag? With Everlane, apparently not. The Everlane Weekender is made from water-resistant cotton twill, with leather straps and detailing and metal feet to protect the base. It comes in a choice of colorways and does double duty as a work or leisure weekender thanks to its understated aesthetics. It’s also carry-on size, so it fits just as well in an overhead compartment as it does slung onto the back seat of your car. There’s a useful zipped interior pocket placed high up for grabbing small items quickly, while the leather handles are also long enough to function as shoulder straps too. The brand believes strongly in cost transparency, so they’ll even show you how much the bag cost to make and what their markup is – a bold move in a carry world swamped with pricey goods.
the good
- Great value for the money
- Pleasing design
the not so good
