The concept of the knapsack has -- and continues to be -- a utilitarian style that's made for carrying whatever everyday essentials are necessary. However, with styles like the Tourista Bag by Collina Strada taking precedent in the market there has been a distinct shift towards style over function.
Instead of featuring a generous area for storage and the usual accents, the Tourista Bag by Collina Strada is more of a purse than a knapsack with the styling to prove it. Harshly chopped, descending leather accents on the top meshed with strong brass colored hardware make the Tourista Bag by Collina Strada a true update to the previously panned style.
Finely crafted in the USA, the Tourista Bag by Collina Strada is a modern take on an ignored style.
