Day Packs

Meet the new crossbody bag, the Jay Cooke Sling Pack, named after one of Minnesota's top ten State Parks. This bag is built for those “grab and go” moments when adventure is calling.

This is a good size colourful bag to bring happiness and a smile into shopping or a visit to the beach.

Our Archaeologist Satchel is built to withstand the harshest conditions and accompany you on your most daring quests. Made from rugged waxed canvas, premium leather accents, and solid brass hardware, it exudes durability, authenticity, and a touch of vintage charm.

The modern messenger bag presents an option to a backpack “slung” over a shoulder.

Whether for work, gym or travel, this 60cm Canvas Duffle Bag is one of the most durable and multi-functional bags you can own.

This Crew Equipment Bag pulls style influences from our canvas flight backpack to a convenient shoulder bag.

This is a simple, lightweight over the shoulder floppy Tote that can be used to carry almost anything.

This pack pays homage to one James Byron Hustad known as JBH who roamed Minnesota’s Iron Range in search of underground deposits for US Steel in the middle of the last century. Exploring the North Country in search of iron ore can lead an intrepid young geologist into all sorts of adventure. Equipped with his trusty rucksack he would often travel by canoe or float plane into secluded remote areas.

This is one of our favourite day packs.

“So-journ noun / soh-jurn: a period of time when you stay in a place as a traveller or guest”.

This bag works well for children and the young at heart who just want a 'Little bag to carry'.

Almost the perfect day pack as seen in old Victorian prints when plant and specimen collecting was all the rage and Alpine walks were the height of fashion. Inside is a security pocket ideal for map and compass or today’s cell phone and i-Pod™. If you look in our Friends section you will see a little more about where these bags are made, why they were made and who makes them. We look worldwide for good products that have evolved to meet a need. The Frost River story is worth reading. Features...
