A fucking awesome backpack and more...

In the recent years some OG NSer's came together in Burlington VT to focus their efforts towards getting a new brand off the ground. wow cool unique story right? well whatever. I'll skip to the most recently written chapter.

Their drive is to fabricate classic american heritage style goods that are actually made in america. With that they have succeeded.


They've got this kickstarter going for another 3 weeks. Its already fully funded so they don't need your money to make their dreams come tru. HOWEVER, they have a stretch goal of 20k which results in a fresh as hell (as if the feds were watchin) all back, murdered more than chicago's youth, backpack that I want really badly.


NS has the power to create build and destroy, I've seen this community shame people endlessly, encourage others just as much, and for a specific reference I would credit NS with the successful funding of a previous kickstarter effort (forsake boots). So if you are into this shit, as you should be, because of america, and because of companies by skiers, then check out this link and support by either backing, or sharing with your friends.

I would buy that day to day pack in a heart beat but a 100 bucks seems like a lot for a back pack. Really wanted one, these all look wicked nice. Bump for support.

yeah, one of the guys was juice back in the day, which combined with the gold project to form the main idea.
another was part of the an& brand

Price will happen with made in america, also its real leather and heavy duty canvas. 100 bucks is def not a price that everyone will consider fair for a backpack, but I figure it's gonna be the last one i ever need. theyve got a lifetime warranty ya know.

Yeah. I would be willing to say I've hiked a good 1,500 miles over the years and I use it for everyday stuff and nothing has gone wrong. Snaps haven't broken, nothing has ripped etc. Plus it's white so it gets dirty quick, I just throw it in the wash with some cleaner and it comes out looking brand new. Still has the waterproof quality too. CLUTCH.

It'd get super muddy from camping / hiking and instead of getting dirt all over the place and looking like a hobo, I'd wash it.
