Heath Picnic Set by Ami Kealoha
From the ceramicists responsible for fusing Modern aesthetics with Northern California earthiness, the Heath Picnic Set is a chic addition to warm weather outings. A collaboration with S.Stein bags, the suede and canvas tote holds two three-piece place settings securely in a removable caddy. (See an image after the jump.) There's also a slot for wine, a pocket for linens and cutlery, as well as a loop for keys.
Like Heath ceramics, the bag is designed to last a lifetime and does double duty as a tote for just about anything, so you'll be sure to use it year-round. Heirloom quality pieces don't come cheap of course; buy the set in Persimmon or Olive ($548) or just the bag ($348) online from Heath.

Gregory Z 22 Backpack
The biggest problem with using backpacks in the summer is the uncomfortable sweatiness. Gregory's latest mid-size day pack, the Z 22, features a unique suspension system that they call the "Jet Stream Dynamic Transfer System (DTS)" to prop the pack slightly off your back. The DTS system allows air to circulate between the pack body and your back, keeping you cooler and cutting down...

Tumi Mountain Pack
Tumi continues to push outward and upward-- this time with a mountain climbing pack that looks just as good in the Sea of Tranquility as it does on the top of Mt. Hood. Their VP of Design, Timm Fenton, is an avid mountain climber and created this pack specifically for a climb in South America this Winter. The ultralight pack has a 5000 cubic...

Nau 2.0
Apparently we weren't the only ones saddened by the news earlier this year that eco-clothier Nau was shutting its doors. Thanks in part to an outpouring of support from the community, the Santa Barbara, CA-based label Horny Toad stepped in and bought the company. Sharing a commitment to doing business sustainably, it looks like a good match and we congratulate the both of them....

La Grande Dame by Riva
Recent years have seen Veuve Clicquot choosing Karim Rashid, Porsche Design and other contemporary design luminaries as brand partners, but with the launch of three new accessories in collaboration with Italian yacht-makers Riva, Veuve is moving in a more classically glamorous direction.

Rubicon Rucksack Baby Bag
Unless you're into the "dad in drag" look, we recommend the Rubicon Rucksack, the most masculine diaper bag we've come across. A rugged buffalo leather bag, it comes with two interchangeable linings that transform it from diaper bag (complete with bottle pockets) to padded laptop bag. The over-the-shoulder rucksack also features a snap-in compartment for a water-resistant diaper pad, custom antique brass baby wipes...
