Field & Co. Classic Canvas Side Pockets Vintage Backpack*
The Field & Co. Classic Canvas Side Pockets Vintage Backpack is the bag that looks like it has already been somewhere. Cotton canvas, a silhouette that reads more field trip than gym locker, and unique Field & Co. vintage branding elements and hardware that give it the worn-in look most new bags spend years trying to earn.
It is built around an open main compartment with a pull-cord closure, so the bag swallows a laptop sleeve, a sweater and a water bottle without a zipper to fight. Over it, a protective flap closes with distressed silver clasped hardware, the kind of clasp you hear snap shut. An open front pocket with a pen loop keeps the things you reach for standing between the ticket gate and the cab: pen, pass, phone, keys. Fold over side pockets with Velcro closures take the bottle and the cable bundle and stay quiet while you walk. Adjustable backpack straps and a carry handle let it ride on two shoulders through an airport and hang from one hand at the gate.
At 17.25 inches high, 12 inches long and 6 inches wide, it is sized for a day rather than a fortnight, which is exactly the point: a commute, a campus, a weekend, a carry-on that slides under the seat with room for a book.
HansonEllis personalizes it in-house, as it has done since 1999. The space is deliberately short, up to ten characters on each of two lines, and that restraint is what makes it look intentional: a first name, a set of initials, a graduation year, a nickname. It is the difference between a bag and her bag, and it settles the question of whose is whose when four of them are stacked by the door on a bridesmaids' trip.
Add your personalization text above, choose your quantity, and give a bag that will be carried, not stored.

Which one should I choose
In the Luggage, Travel and Games category the choice usually comes down to how the bag is carried and whether it is personalized at all.
| Field & Co. Classic Canvas Side Pockets Vintage Backpack | Choose it when the bag has to look good and carry a day's worth of things: cotton canvas, pull-cord main compartment, pen loop, side pockets and a personalized name or monogram. |
|---|---|
| A plain unpersonalized canvas backpack | Choose that for pure utility; it carries the same load but there is nothing on it to tell four identical bags apart. |
| A duffel or weekender bag | Choose that for trips longer than a couple of days; it holds more, but it hangs off one shoulder instead of riding on two. |
For a graduation, bridesmaid or travel gift that gets carried daily, the personalized Field & Co. Classic Canvas Side Pockets Vintage Backpack is the pick.
