The Christopher

I once read an article that backpacks are only for 12-year old boys and that the modern, urban man should be carrying a man bag such as a messenger or body sling. Seeing the Christopher with its "special order" counterparts is making me rethink this proposition. Check it out: The men who wear the Christopher This Photo: fashionphile Epi Leather (approx. $7K) Kanye West with his Damier Azur (approx. $6K)

  2. I think you still can but it will have to be a special order, hence the exhorbitant price tag.

  4. About the pricing on the bag, though when it were available in Denmark several years ago it was about 21500 Danish krones = 4533.47 US Dollars, for the Monogram Edition :b

  7. I bought mine for US$4,000+ in Beverly hills last 2004 or 2005..they also have it in epi but I love the monogram more..I saw someone selling it on eBay for a way lot more about US$9,000 for a Christopher backpack..but having this backpack is to die for...I have seen only one person wearing it in person and it was on a plane to Paris..
