TGIF Shopping: Handcrafted Day Packs by Winter Session

By

Introducing Winter Session’s two-toned waxed cotton canvas day packs. If you’re looking to transition your gear for the winter weather’s up and downs, these are a sure-fire way to protect your stuff. Winter Session’s team in Denver handcrafts these bags with 100-percent recycled cotton. The waxed cotton exterior protects them from any dirt or water. And the inside has a laptop sleeve for electronics. These bags transition from office, to gym, to a weekend trip flawlessly. We love the simple two-tone design.  Winter Session’s team of three friends originally hails from Chicago  where they started the company in their living room. Can you feel the love? We sure can and it doesn’t break the bank. The two-toned canvas will only run you $285. Not bad for handmade. In 2013, they relocated to the mile-high city. The team also handcrafts other bags and leather accessories.

Bonobos is preparing you to look great for the holidays
Look great while you celebrate good times
Bonobos Holiday collection at a subway stop

As the holidays start to explode into full swing, we are preparing to attend parties and get-togethers ranging from casual attire to formal attire. If you are looking for the right kind of ensemble to wear to your office party (gotta make the boss happy and look like you want to be there) or for your family (gotta make your mom happy and still leave enough stretch to eat all that is put in front of you) then Bonobos is thinking about you. The Bonobos holiday collection is a selection of pieces put together to help you look your best without having to think about anything other than spreading holiday cheer throughout the season.
Everything from casual to dress

The trick to dressing for a holiday party comes down to festive comfort. You want to be comfortable, and Bonobos has Performance Link Pants in seven different colors to help you add some color to the office party. You can also elect to go a little higher elevation by putting together the Empire Super 150s suit; only swap out the dress shirt for a luxurious Merino Sweater. If you want something a little more casual for mom's house, the Five-Pocket Corduroy Pants or the Flannel-lined denim is the perfect fit. Top either of those looks with a Cashmere Top Coat or Italian Wool Car Coat and you will be ready for anything from an office party to a family get-together or even drinks on the town if you want to keep it simple this season.
