You can almost never go wrong with leather, and Rudsak’s signature
leather pieces, ranging from treated bombers to soft hobo messenger
totes are testament to this longstanding fashion rule. Designer Evik
Asatoorian launched the Montreal-based brand in 1994, following a
sleek, minimalist, urban-inspired design aesthetic that shows up in the
line’s outwear, footwear, bags, and accessories. And while vegans may
not appreciate the versatile flattened duffels, oversized clutches, and
framed totes that were runway hits, they’ll no doubt be on more than a
few fashion-savvy arms this year.
