The very hipster-trendy bag from Switzerland, [Freitag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/f707-stratos), lets you be the designer with a brand new online tool. There’s no contest to get it produced; just customize your bag using the F cut tool on their website, and you’re on your way to having a bag that no one else has ever had.

This is definitely the future of underground design. The popularity of [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forward-cargo-tote)’s [create-your-own sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sneaker-maker) is proof of that. The best part of Freitag’s design program is that really anyone can use it. Even if you don’t have a artistic bone in your body, you can create a really cool bag. Try it out, see how you do!
