Eastpak has a knack for backing new talent (geddit?). The backpack giant has previously partnered with the likes of Christopher Shannon as well as fashion stalwarts like Raf Simons. This spring, recent Central Saint Martins grad Nicomede Talavera steps up to the plate for a second collab collection, designing shiny leather and nylon styles. Minimalist lines and genius details, including iridescent key chains and hidden magnetic pouches, are exactly why Nicomede is tipped for the top. The bags are available now, exclusively at OC in the US. They are: a backpack with a 15" laptop sleeve (available in silver leather or black nylon), an optic white duffel-slash-backpack, and a drawstring backpack with a super shiny body made from ink-blue patent leather.
