Everything about the Simple Backpack by Jakob Lukosch, an industrial designer based in Hannover, Germany, is sleek and streamlined, which is not surprising considering its succinct name. It is a simple backpack through and through, yet it is made out of a fairly luxurious material. Instead of canvas, nylon and other common knapsack materials, this design is crafted out of quality leather.
Complete with a single outer zipper and a flap top, the Simple Backpack by Jakob Lukosch is large small enough to be used on a daily basis but large enough for special occasion uses as well. Yet the best feature about the design is the minimum number of seams, which simplifies its production. It is available in various colors.
