Shoulders back and head high
Montblanc Extreme Rucksack, Dior Homme’s black leather backpack. With phones, tablets, keys and eyewear constantly to be carried, celebrate this stylish return to hands-free convidence.
Take a hike and make a backpack your accessory for 2018. Once the preserve of bushwalkers, survivalists and nature lovers, the knapsack has been embraced by haute fashion for its ability to combine utilitarian appeal with the ultra-luxurious materials, sleek hardware and high-tech finishes that appeal to city slickers as well as hayseed habitués. While skiers and trampers squeeze in everything from a Thermos and sandwiches to a torch and a compass, a backpack allows urban adventurers to accommodate a laptop, gym gear, a wallet and more.

For the most stylish iterations, one need look no further than Montblanc and Dior. The Dior Homme black leather backpack ($3400, dior.com, sold only in boutiques) comes in supple yet sturdy grained calfskin and measures 30 x 42 x 15cm. Its streamlined attention to detail makes it perfect for transporting keys, smartphone and the other essentials of a contemporary lifestyle, while the Christian Dior savoir is evident in a subtle stamp featuring the French luxury brand’s atelier logo.

Montblanc has channelled its German snow-peaked history to create the Extreme Rucksack ($1300, montblanc.com), using an innovative leather with a woven-carbon texture. Measuring 32 x 46 x 18cm, it is spacious yet lightweight and cleverly includes compartments and pockets for laptop, mobile phone, charging cables and headphones. Like its Dior counterpart, the Montblanc Extreme backpack caters to tech heads as well as traditionalists as a supple and stylish addition to your accessory arsenal. – GEORGINA SAFE
