The Explorer Backpack 2017-2018
A brand-new addition to the Douchebags line-up, the Explorer is a pack of the “peaks to streets” variety. With 20 liters of storage and a diagonal ski carry set- up it functions as your go-to resort pack, with plenty of room for extra layers, a bag lunch, snacks, water, keys, phone and wallet, etc.—while also allowing you to toss your skis on your back and huff it up the boot- pack en route to that coveted hike-to terrain. When it’s time to hit the town or, say, the airport, you can remove the waist straps and easily hide many of the other ones via an innovative interior stowage system for a toned-down, styled-up look.
