Bruxe Bags Holiday 2008 by Mike Giles
After a successful launch of their inaugural collection of streetwear-influenced premium bags (which we covered here back in March, brothers Oli and Mer Van Roost of Bruxe have been a very busy duo. For the current Holiday 2008 season they have chosen to focus on a new colorway and a slimmed down, limited run of their three “classic” designs, the Jefferson, Johnston and Greene. Focused primarily on innovative fabrics, sleek aesthetics and details of the highest quality and with less than 400 bags in total available this time around, these offerings are sure to fly through your local retailers.
