BRAVEST STUDIOS – AIRPODS AIRPACK BACKPACK

Posted on 2025-07-28

Bravest Studios has revealed its latest statement piece: the AIRPACK, a wearable backpack modeled after Apple’s iconic AirPods case. Set to launch later this week, the 44-liter accessory reimagines tech minimalism as streetwear utility.

The design features a smooth white capsule exterior with a clamshell-style zipper that opens to reveal two dome-shaped pouches inside each resembling a supersized earbud. These removable compartments offer flexible storage, while a dedicated laptop sleeve and adjustable straps round out the bag’s functional appeal. The AIRPACK debuted at a pop-up event in NYC’s Soho district, accompanied by a billboard-scale mural campaign that amplified its surreal proportions and cultural resonance.

Built with angular limbs, simplified geometry, and exaggerated proportions, the figure reflects Abney’s signature visual language while honoring the quiet exceptionalism found in ordinary people.
