Archival Clothing Rucksack and Flap Musette/Workwear

I have a backpack and a flap musette from this company. A musette is either a bag used to pass meals to cyclists during races or, more generally, a “type of haversack also known as a butt bag.” I keep cigarettes, sunglasses, and a book in mine. I use the backpack when I need to take more things with me. It is supposed to be made to last forever but has started to fray at the corners, which I take to be evidence of my own ruggedness. I left the musette at a bar in Portland once. The bartenders laughed a bit too hard when I went back to get it and described it like this: “It’s gray. About so big. It’s basically a purse.”
