I love dogs, but I don't love them enough to rock the Givenchy Rottweiler wool flannel backpack. Designed by Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy, the Rottweiler backpack is a three-compartment backpack covered in vicious Rottweiler dogs.
The Rottweiler print extends throughout the face of the backpack, with the backside of the bag left bare. I have to hand it to Tisci for going way outside the box with this design. Most animals featured on clothing look either over-stylized (Ed Hardy clothing) or awkward (dragon-print button shirts). The Givenchy rottweiler wool flannel backpack strikes a unique balance with its tasteful, yet badass look.
The backpack isn't up for sale just yet, but you can put in a preorder for it. I can't wait to see who rocks this one at my school.
