Harvest Label Urban Cross Pack

Osaka, Japan–based company Harvest Label has been making backpacks since 1995. What’s kept this manufacturer in business more than 20 years? At the top of the list is a conscious commitment to design, and the Urban cross pack is a perfect example. A minimalist sling bag in a number of dark colors, it’s the right size for a day in the city. Rather than trying to fit all the essentials into your pockets, you can throw them in this pack and still have room to spare for extras—like charging cables, if you’re going to work in a coffee shop, or reusable bags, if you’re heading to the grocery store. At once sleek, practical, and stylish, the Urban has a magnetic flap-over closure, an expandable main compartment, and plenty of pockets. There’s even rear zippered access to the main compartment, so you don’t have to go through the flap.
