Fade of the Day – Archival Rucksack (3.5 Years Old)

It’s not every day that our Fade of the Day features involve wax, but it’s time to change that with this three and a half-year-old Archival Rucksack. Sent in by a Heddels reader, he mentioned his appreciation for the quality built into the bag as it is showing minimal stress after all this time, aside from a couple wear marks and some of the bottom stitching beginning to separate.

He recently re-waxed the bag this year, and by the looks of it, he won’t be slowing down the wear anytime soon. The only bummer is that Archival recently announced they are stepping down from the production side of their brand, but will continue to exist as a blog, making this fade not only timely but also commemorative.
