Balenciaga's highly recognisable Arena bags have been a success with bag fans and continues as a classic range for the avant garde fashion house. It may have lost much of its appeal these days but the brand have started to update and apply the signature details to popular bag styles to stay relevant. Since mens backpacks are emptying out pockets for fashion fans everywhere, Balenciaga have also started to introduce their own spin on this popular bag style. Enter the ‘Traveller Backpack’. Balenciaga’s Traveller backpack comes in 2 sizes (small and large) bearing the signature palladium studs, leather tab zipper pulls and constructed in soft crafted vintage lambskin. They will be offered in current seasonal hues which fans have always love collecting. With a snap buckle top flap, front zip pockets and a drawstring inside closure, the roomy Traveller backpack (as the name suggests) makes for a good summer vacation companion.  For extra capacity, the large size version allows for an addition zip compartment at the base, perfect for sandals and shoes.

Will you still be interested in Balenciaga’s designs although offered in a highly popular backpack format? To me, perhaps a lower price point will get me on board. The pricing of USD1615 and USD1785 for small and large sizes respectively seem a little excessive for a weary design that seemingly passed its glory day. But I am sure some fans will disagree with me.

Thoughts?

Balenciaga Traveller (Large) measures 17.6” Width x 19.5” Height x 6.6” Depth while the small size measures 16.75” Width x 17” Height x 5.75” Depth.
