Many of my readers now know that I live in Austria. We take advantage of being in a mountainous country and trekking frequently as a family. While researching to buy canvas backpacks for my husband and two sons, I found a few products that I liked very much and I wanted to share with you.
Products are available at lukecase online shopping page. I chose the products in the pictures that I added for my husband and for my sons.
I would like to talk also about why waxed canvas backpacks are so preferred:
Waxed canvas backpacks are among the most popular backpacks ever. And there are good reasons for this: Canvas is a fabric that is tightly and firmly woven from strong yarn. Therefore it is extremely robust and only has a low weight. Also, a fabric backpack remains flexible and the shape adapts to the content.
Vintage hiking backpack
Old-fashioned yet modern: hiking backpacks in the vintage design are timeless accessories and practical everyday companions. Despite the retro look, you don't have to do without modern comfort and equipment.
This style is perfect for all adventurers. Their design immediately makes us think of hiking in the wilderness. But these canvas backpacks are also a reliable companion in the urban jungle. They have several external patch pockets and many practical internal compartments. With these many storage options, they are also ideal for school, university, or the office. Almost all models also have an extra laptop compartment.
The models are available in several colors. Most of them are gray, black, and muted earth tones. All models can be worn by women and men.
Vintage school bag
The combination of canvas and leather creates the ultimate vintage look. These backpacks combine robustness with elegance and visually remind us of our grandparents' school bags.
A waxed canvas backpack with leather applications is the perfect choice for those who do not want to decide. The thick canvas material is tough and yet flexible. And the leather spices up the look.
Despite the low prices, the flaps and straps on most backpacks are made of real leather. This guarantees high quality. The soft leather shows nice signs of wear after a short time so that a real patina is created and the backpacks appear really "old".
The leather flaps can be opened and closed quickly using practical magnetic locks.
