KAVU's range of rope bags have a bit of a cult following. They're casual sling bags with oodles of easy-going traveller style, and the distinctive feature is the comfortable braided rope strap that sits over your right shoulder. There are two main pockets with zip access, plus two smaller easy-access front pockets – one Velcro, one zip. Previously KAVU have offered versions of the rope bag constructed in natural or synthetic fabrics, but this Remix model uses both. You've got the water-resistance of 11oz polyester, patched together with the rugged good looks of 12oz cotton canvas. And because it's a new style, they've taken the opportunity to tweak the design. Notably, there's now a hidden zip pocket in the padded back panel that's perfect for important travel documents or whatever.

Now here’s an origin story for you. Back in the early nineties, fishing boat skipper Barry Barr was fed up with wearing cheap trucker caps that got snatched off his head in storms, never to be seen again. He decided to make a super-durable cap that wouldn’t blow off whatever the weather, and he did it by stitching the webbing material from a Teva sandal all the way around the crown. Turned out his ‘Strapcap’ was a hit, and KAVU was born.

From humble beginnings flogging Strapcaps out of the boot of his car in Seattle, Barry’s since expanded to produce a whole array of durable outdoor kit with a laid-back, van-lifer vibe. The KAVU range takes in everything from sling bags to swim shorts, and while they’re serious about producing great gear that’s made to last, they’re also not afraid to have a laugh. Their prints are bold, playful, and in some cases so loud that they’ll take some considerable chutzpah to carry off – but that’s what makes them so much fun.
