Carrying Baggage

Sometimes the best travel companion is the perfect bag.

Enter EG Forge’s messenger bags, duffels and backpacks designed by Eric Goodwin.

Designed to fit into airplane carry-on compartments and be comfortable when packed to the seams, Goodwin’s bags will help get your gear where you want to go. The well-worn patina of waxed canvas, oil-tanned leather strapping and brass clasps make each bag look like it has been hauled on more than a few adventures and lived to tell the tale. Choose a handmade bag from the studio walls or work with Goodwin to design a custom carrier.

Getting the bag puts you one step closer to giving in to your wanderlust desires. —Jaelyn Molyneux
