The Christopher

Rugged and manly, The Christopher is the perfect addition to a lifestyle dedicated to the rustic, authentic look. If you like the look and feel of materials that have been reclaimed and repurposed like leather and canvas, The Christopher will be the best companion for your travels or just your daily commute.

Whether you’re traveling abroad and need a reliable carry-on bag to stash your essentials, or you’re just carting a laptop back and forth to work or class, The Christopher has all the interior room you need to get there and the style to make the journey more pleasant.

The Barrel Shack’s original designs relied solely on reclaimed canvas from old military tents and repurposed leather from other sources to create these one-of-a-kind pieces that resonate with our customers who enjoy the rustic, country style. In this newest generation of backpacks, we’ve kept to the original intent, and The Christopher gives you the look and feel of old materials put to a new use.

This intriguing backpack features a large main compartment that can hold just about everything you need and cinches closed at the top with a cinch cord. A leather flap closes securely over the top of The Christopher and buckles down with a leather strap and metalwork buckle.

There are two smaller pockets on the exterior that mirror the top with leather flaps and metalwork buckles to give you a pleasant symmetry to the front of The Christopher. Everything about The Christopher says: Casual. Classic. Rustic.
