Cargo Pocket-Adorned Backpacks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The General Research "Parasite" Bag is Filled with Various Pockets

— December 26, 2024 — Fashion
Japanese brand Mountain Research brings attention to its latest bag design in the form of the 'Gregory x Nexus VII x General Research "Parasite" bag.' Similar to the rest of the series, it is filled with a cargo pocket for a functional touch and the new iterations will be launching online on the Mountain Research website by early 2025.

The series is comprised of backpacks and sling bags that are detailed with various pockets throughout the Cordura build. The backpack has a slick structure to withstand the weather. The pockets are complete with a flap which is supported by more security with the velcro enclosures. Tonal contrast is seen at the lining to round it out.
