# Army-Inspired Camouflage Bags The Nick Wooster x WANT Les Essentiels Line is Battle-Ready By Jordy E | Published 2012-11-28 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nick-wooster References: [nylonguysmagazine.tumblr](http://www.nylonguysmagazine.tumblr.com/post/36673195057/nick-wooster-want-les-essentiels-camo-collection) & [mrporter](http://www.mrporter.com) The Nick Wooster x WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie line is minimalist and excellent for transport. The duo take the [US Army](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/relwen-combat-2in1-jacket) as a prime source of inspiration, evident in the camouflage patterns and espionage-themed styles. A minimalist aesthetic abounds this Nick Wooster x WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie collaboration. The assortment of [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/made-on-ipad) cases, totes, and small handheld bags are lacking in detail as they exclusively showcase classic army patterns, seen here in the intertwined bits of brown, green and camel. These pieces are currently available at [Barney's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-and-barney) New York and on the Mr. Porter site. Given their functional travel elements, it follows that Nick Wooster and WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie have named each design after international airports. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 19% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Camouflage Bags:** The trend of minimalist camouflage bags offers an opportunity for designers to create sleek and stylish accessories with a military-inspired twist. - **Army-inspired Fashion Collaborations:** The trend of army-inspired fashion collaborations allows for unique and creative designs that merge military elements with contemporary aesthetics. - **Functional Travel Accessories:** The trend of functional travel accessories presents an opportunity for brands to create practical and stylish products that cater to the needs of frequent travelers. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion and Accessories:** The fashion and accessories industry can capitalize on the trend of minimalist camouflage bags by offering innovative designs and expanding their product offerings. - **Collaboration and Partnerships:** The trend of army-inspired fashion collaborations opens up opportunities for brands to collaborate and partner with different designers, merging their creative visions and expanding their customer base. - **Travel and Luggage:** The travel and luggage industry can leverage the trend of functional travel accessories by developing innovative products that cater to the growing demands of modern travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Camo Design Bag Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herschel-supply-x-realtree.md) - [Ultra-Sophisticated Leather Travel Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-travel-bags.md) - [Collaboration Camouflage Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-brown-buffalo-x-huckberry-concealpack.md) - [Artful Camo Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skylrk-camo.md) - [Posh Plant-Based Bag Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porter-yoshida.md) - [Militaristic Winter-Ready Bag Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/malice-bags.md) - [Outdoor Utility Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apc-x-gregory.md) - [Stealthy Collaborative Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-camo-collection.md) - [Functional Collaborative Technical Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comme-des-garons-and-porter.md)
