They say you shouldn’t wear black in summer. Something about attracting heat.
But it also tends to attract something else: eyeballs. All of them.

Below, our picks from their expertly edited launch collection.
- The Shell: A structured full-grain leather backpack. The comfy canvas straps will help keep you cool on those 90-degree days.
- The Stack: A zipper wallet for your passport, cash and five cards.
- The Fix: A waterproof dopp lined with canvas and plenty of organization options.
- The Hit: A simple wallet with room for four cards and some cash.
