Cycling backpacks tend to lean more towards the practical and not so much towards the fashionable, a fact industrial designers Anna and Tony of Ducks in a Row are well aware of. The duo have come up with their luxurious Commuter Packs: a rectangular cycling backpack made of vegetable tanned leather that’s sturdy enough for urban bike commutes and dressy enough for a day at the office. As expected, you can slip all your tech and paraphernalia into various padded compartments, but the bike-friendly features are definitely the stars of the show. Leather straps, which can be hidden from view, connect the pack to your bike’s handlebars. A touch screen phone pocket allows you GPS access, and there are other practical bits and bobs as well, like flashlight and helmet connectors. And did we mention how handsome it looks? You can pre-order your own here.
