Though camouflage was originally made to blend in, the Wheelmen & Co. Scout Series Bag is covered in camo that makes it stand out from others. The [tote bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/subu-x-hpotr) is a part of the Red Collection Scout Series. Resurfaced HBT camouflage makes up the bulk of the bag, with vintage [YKK](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spclst-system-duffel-bag) zipper hardware to hold everything together.

The [camouflage print](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skylrk-camo) has a cartoonish influence in it, making it look fashion forward instead of military surplus. The bag is great to make a quick getaway for the weekend, or for a day trip to the beach etc... The best part about a bag this big is that you can fit whatever you need to in it, and just throw it over you shoulder.
