“This slim, low profile pack from new brand Taikan is the definition of minimalist cool. It doesn’t have any external pouches or pockets, making for a streamlined silhouette that’s perfect for those with a daily commute. Don’t let this understated little pack fool you, however: it’s crafted from ballistic nylon which was originally developed as a material for jackets for WWII airmen, meaning that it’s as durable as it is practical.”
