So much of what we see in fashion and outdoor gear collaborations these days amounts to little more than a series of cosmetic one-offs: a shift in colors, swapping a few materials, and the dreaded two-logo swap treatment. Not here though. When the sustainably-focused and design-forward Swedish sportswear brand Houdini teamed with Rocky Mountain-based backpack pioneers Osprey, the two set out to design something brand new: a fresh backpack for all of the pursuits one could chase in the mountains.
Named Allt, after the Swedish word for “everything,” the four-season pack designed by both Osprey and Houdini product teams outfits ski tourers, climbers, and hikers with a single 30-liter bag to take on a full calendar of outings and alpine adventures. Also available in a smaller 20-liter iteration, the Allt retains many of the design features of its big brother, in a more everyday carry-friendly volume.
Below, we speak with both brands' design teams to gain some exclusive insight into the highly anticipated collaboration.
