Backpacks are out, Rucksacks are In

Fjallraven has quickly become the hipster go-to rucksack. But after trying one out at a recent press preview, I have to admit that I like em. The Kånken rucksack was originally designed for Swedish school children back in 1978, since then the rucksack has become a fashion staple for kids and adults. Who doesn’t enjoy a good school days throwback in fashion and they come in every colour. Now the only problem is which colour to choose so you don’t look too hipster (and please only use it when going to the beach or cottage – everyday wear makes you a hipster).

  1. I love backpacks! They are a great alternative to a duffle bag when heading to the cottage or overnight trips!

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
