Filson x Chris Stapleton Traveller Collection

When it comes to bags and accessories built for the long-haul and for wilderness adventure and travel alike, Filson are the name that immediately spring to mind here at The Coolector and they’ve just launched the Filson x Chris Stapleton Traveller Collection that proves this point admirably. The excellent new Traveller collection of bags was designed in collaboration with Chris Stapleton and takes its name from his highly acclaimed 2015 debut solo album. Pulled from the archives and carefully updated with harness leather straps, handles, and reinforcements, these classy carries are leagues apart in style and performance. Check out the best bits from this ace new collab below:


Traveller Outfitter Bag

This bag was carefully designed by Chris, who selected the fabric, zipper, and leather colours himself. The grab handle and zipper reinforcements are made from heavy-duty harness leather that has been vegetable-tanned in Pennsylvania by the legendary Wickett & Craig. This special leather is infused with tallow and waxes during the tanning process, which makes it incredibly durable and supple. It will only get better with age, so you can enjoy this bag for many years to come.

Traveller Duffel Bag

The Traveller Medium Duffle Bag is a collaboration between Filson and renowned musician and songwriter Chris Stapleton. Chris is a long-time fan of Filson products and uses them often when he is on tour. The bag is part of a collection named after Chris’s highly acclaimed 2015 album, Traveller. The collection includes some of Chris’s favorite Filson bags that he uses when he is traveling.

Traveller Stowaway Backpack

This backpack was designed for people like Chris, who travel frequently and need a versatile bag that can be easily stowed away when not in use. The lightweight ripstop cotton fabric is water-resistant, and the exterior pockets keep essentials organized and accessible. The classic drawstring closure is secure and easy to use.

Traveller Suit Cover

The fabric is made of lightweight ripstop cotton that is lightly dry-waxed to resist water and stains. The front zipper is full-length, which makes it easy to pack. The top has a scalloped opening and three webbing loops for hangers. Snaps and webbing handles on the top and bottom allow you to carry it folded in your hand. The exterior mesh pocket doubles as a carrying pouch when the suit cover is folded inside. The harness leather zipper tab is embossed with Chris’s initials.

Traveller Dopp Kit

This limited-edition travel kit is a stylish and durable choice for any traveller. The fabric, zipper, and leather colours were chosen by Chris himself, and the grab handle and zipper reinforcements are made from heavy-duty harness leather that has been vegetable-tanned in Pennsylvania by the legendary Wickett & Craig.
