Minaal Day Bag and Carry-on 2.0 Bag are ideal for EDC or one-bag travel

NEWS – I’m a big fan of bags designed for one-bag travel, and also of bags designed for EDC. However, while a single bag designed for both purposes may sound good in theory, most often it does not work well in practice. Minaal understands that, so they offer both their very functional Day Bag for daily school or office commute and their Carry-on 2.0 Bag several days of travel without having to check it on.

Both bags are made from Minaal’s custom 600D nylon fabric with 1000D nylon in high-abrasion areas (plus and Woojin & Duraflex buckles), and both feature Minaal’s DeviceNest shockproof laptop compartment, tuck-away shoulder straps + side handles for transforming to briefcase mode, lockable Daily YKK zippers for security, a seam-sealed rain cover, and both are available in low-key but sharp-looking Aoraki Black or Vancouver Grey colors.

The Day Bag’s capacity is a very capable 21L, while the Carry-on 2.0 Bag’s capacity is a generous 35L. Additionally, both bags include plenty of pockets, slots, pouches and other organizational features in various sizes and shapes, all cleverly placed throughout. The Daily Bag retails for $249, while its larger sibling the Carry-on 2.0 Bag retails for $299. Trek over to Minaal.com for additional info or to order.

Bellroy launches a new luxury leather line, and boy does it look good.

NEWS – When Bellroy goes in on a new product line, they don’t mess around. They started with small carry products that earned a reputation for excellence. When they stepped into bag design, I was blown away innovative designs and build quality. And now Bellroy is exploring leather with the same attention to design and detail.

Look at those product shots. Take a moment. I’ll wait.

The Designers Edition features clean, functional, luxurious designs made for the executive boardroom. You’ll find a briefcase and a tote in the lineup along with an assortment of wallets and small carry items. They’re premium items to be sure, but Bellroy does premium right. Go get some fancy here!

BluffWorks Threshold Performance T-shirt

NEWS – BluffWorks has been steadily building a very impressive product offering over the past few years, including their most recent, the Horizon Quilted Vest and the Departure Travel Jeans. Their latest offering is the Threshold Performance T-Shirt, which continues BluffWorks’ pattern of simple yet stylish, technical and durable clothing suitable for travel, office or everyday wear. T-shirts have become a quite ubiquitous staple of wardrobes worldwide since their introduction around the turn of the 20th century, so what makes the Threshold Performance T-Shirt unique? A fair question. Below are a rundown of its features.

For starters, it’s quite a bit more technical than the standard cotton T-shirt, made from a blend of 66% Polyester, 29% Lyocell, and 5% Elastaine so it is lightweight and breathable, moisture-wicking and quick-drying, and has 4-way stretch for better freedom of movement. It also has both gold and silver nano-particles embedded into the fabric to aid in odor resistance. It even has UPF 50+ sun protection. It is also available in five colors: Peak White, Mist Grey, Hurricane Grey, Deep Orange, or Maritime Blue, all suitable for layering under a BluffWorks Meridian Dress Shirt or worn on their own. And finally, to best fit your physique and preference, it’s available in two fits, Slim and Classic, two lengths, Regular and Tall, and sizes XS through XL. Visit BluffWorks.com to find more info on the Threshold Performance T-Shirt or to pre-order it for $45.
