Filson Field Bag
Wax treatments over the
course of 11 years made this
satchel supple and water-
resistant; they’ve also turned
the cotton twill a darker
brown than an off-the-shelf
carry- all. Under the heft of
cameras, the leather straps
soft ened but are still sturdy.Copilot Roller
The tight weave of this 7.6-
pounder’s nylon exterior may
show the scars of many trips
Down Under, but it won’t rip.
Inside, a rubbery neoprene
lining protects souvenirs,
and an expandable pocket
sequesters those dirty socks.36 SPRING 2019 • POPSCI.COM by Stan Horaczek / photographs by Sam Kaplan
SOME BAGS HAVE BEEN AROUND THE WORLD,
and it shows. These well-worn cases—sourced from the PopSci
network—bear the scuffs and dings of adventures logged since
the luggage first left the store. Start your own globe-trotting with
a brand-new one, and its lifetime warranty will help it last from
a gap year all the way through an Alaskan retirement cruise.FOR LIFEHANDLED
