Product Overview


Hi, this is Cross Munson, Dad's son. I was born in 2009, but when I was 9 years old I designed this lightweight leather backpack because Dad's backpacks and satchels were too heavy for me. A couple of years ago, I asked Dad if I could design a backpack that was lightweight and he said that I could if I made it strong and with no breakable parts. So I designed this lightweight leather backpack a lot like my old favorite canvas backpack that I carried all over the place. I made the shoulder straps wide and kind of padded so they would be comfortable. I made it with d-rings to close the pockets and a drawstring to close the backpack. I just added a cool new feature to this leather backpack so you can roll it up to throw in another bag when you're traveling. When you get to wherever you're going, leave the heavier bag in the room and pull out this lightweight travel backpack when you're walking around the town. It's a really cool backpack and you should buy one.

The Story of Rumplepigskin - By Cross Munson    

Once upon a time there was a young girl who was beautiful. So beautiful was the girl that the king wanted to give her father money for her. Her father was a poor miller and needed the money, so he lied to the king that his daughter could spin wheat into gold, to get extra money. So the king paid a lot of money and took the girl. Soon he told her that he would lock her in the wheat room and would not let her out until she spun all of it into gold. The girl tried to tell the king she could not do it but the king told her to do it anyways.

She cried and cried and cried until a curious talking pig, named Rumplepigskin, waddled up to her and said, "I will spin that wheat into gold if you steal me some and let me eat it." The girl was very amazed at this ugly waddling talking pig and she told him she would. So that night she slept and when she woke up it was all gold! The king checked up on her and was amazed. He said, "If you can spin wheat into gold then turn this large chunk of copper into diamonds."

She became worried that the weird waddling pig would not be able to do that, but again she cried and cried and cried until Rumplpigskin showed up. He said,'' I will turn this into diamonds if you give me your firstborn son's name." So she agreed that she would do that and then Rumplpigskin farted on the copper and it turned into diamond. The next morning, the king came in and was super surprised that she did that and made her his wife. Next year they had a baby boy.

The young queen forgot about her deal and went on a walk. She somehow felt drawn to the pigs so she went there and soon she was face to face with Rumplpigskin. He was very mad about his deal and said, "You have tricked me so I will kill your son!" Good thing the queen always carried her trusty knife with her and knew how to skin a pig. So she killed Rumplpigskin and they all ate really really good bacon in the royal hall and got a made a really nice lightweight leather backpack and Hog Sacks out of his skin.

    Hogsback Travel Backpack

    I LOVE this backpack! The size is perfect, holds a lot, but is not too big for everyday use. Very light and supple, and very strong leather. I think it’s beautiful! It feels good on the back and shoulders . The straps are substantial and comfy. I LOVE the ‘old school’ style done in strong leather. This is a unique bag, it is very well made, and is a joy to carry. Well done, Cross! It’s a winner!

    Excellent!

    As much as I love all things cowhide Saddleback (and I have a lot)- this is a superior backpack. Sorry Dave, you taught your boy well. I love how light it is - because I have to pack a lot into it when my band's on tour. All my essentials fit easily. Only had it for a little bit and already love it. One couldn't get a better piece of kit for twice the price ... er, sorry Dave. Again.

    And Burnt Sausage looks great beside my OG Carbon. Jus' sayin.

    large leather backpack

    love the backpack it is light and is very rugged for the light weight leather i have two of them. i do have a question and i know you will answer me i have been a saddleback person for a long time and have a lot of saddleback things and am very impressed every time i purchase something. However i do have a question regarding this backpack is it supposte to sit like the picture or is it supposed to sit on the front pocket cause thats how mine sits so ya cant get in the pocket unless you pick up the backpack
    if thats the way it was designed ok then just let me know that but i dont think that is the way its supposed to sit. Thank you in advance for your answer
