To commemorate Cote&Ciel’s new Monsoon ‘Chaos’ Print backpack collection, the Parisian brand have linked up with British skate company Karma Skateboards to produce a super limited deck series, that also feature the custom print.
The highly functional and lightweight Monsoon backpacks have been designed for urban living, featuring padded shoulder straps for added comfort and a laptop sleeve to help keep your valuables safe. Perhaps the most useful feature is the bags strap adjuster that allows the bag to expand and contract to adapt to your needs, keeping the bag functional yet versatile. The backpacks arrive with the ‘Chaos’ design, in two differen’t colour variations, applied as an all over print. Offered in soft pastel palette with hits of black and grey, and a more darker colour option of a carnelian red and dark onyx green mix, the print uses digital manipulation over paint and pigment, to bring more traditional forms of ‘abstract impressionism’ into modern day.
The stand out design has also been translated onto Karma decks to compliment the pack but also to build further on the idea of urban movement, with skateboarding a key choice of transport for many in major cities. The 10 limited edition decks are made from 100% American maple, grown in managed forests from the Great Lakes in Wisconsin. Each deck is designed and printed right here in the UK to ensure quality in all that Karma produce. You can find out more on Karma Skateboards over at www.karmaskateboards.com
