Japanese menswear giant NEPENTHES have long been revered for their ability to produce high-quality and style-minded pieces over a huge span of styles and categories: this expansive lookbook from their bag and accessory outfit South 2 West 8 is yet another example. The range takes inspiration from the isolation and wilderness of Hokkaido’s national parks, with the pieces blending a nice heritage aesthetic with the kind of detail we’ve come to love from Japanese designers. Materials like Cordura nylon, ballistic nylon and its signature “Sunforger” fabric have been used to create a huge slew of beautiful pieces. Included among them are new backpacks, messengers, duffel bags and briefcases, each one handcrafted in the USA. For more information and to shop the offering, head over to South 2 West 8.
