By John Legaspi
It is an understatement to say that the Philippines is a traveler’s paradise. With its endless sunshine, vibrant culture, and sites to see, a wanderlust can many things to tick off their bucket list in the country. The only thing they need to have is a dependable travel companion—and we’re talking about bags—that could go with them on whatever type of adventure they are about to take.
That’s what Hong Kong bag brand Doughnut has been bringing to the table since its inception. With its “Pack Your Dream” vision, the brand has presented now-classic designs that can keep up with their wearer’s adventure, whether it is a un urban experience or a rugged terrain exploration.
'Actualise Series'
This time, it is introducing a new collection with a sophisticated style that could work in both destinations. Dubbed the “Actualise Series,” the collection features bags in black, focusing on functional and flexible designs. They are practical and straightforward, there is confidence in the pieces’ simple—yet smart—look. To make them, the brand used 420D Nylonplus Recycled Ocean Waste Nylon, making them waterproof. There’s an elasticated bungee system as well for additional external storage. Every piece is designed with numerous multi-function slots with separate zippered compartments. Moreover, there are plenty of external pockets made for easy access, with flap closures that provide more security. Included in the collection are Astir Large, Dynamic Large, Lucid, and Stargazer backpacks. Versatility is also a key element of the collection. The perfect example of that is the Guild bag, a two-in-one piece that can be carried as a backpack and has a detachable pouch that can be a front pocket or a crossbody. While the Metanoia and Atom cross bags can be a shoulder bag and a bumbag, respectively, perfect for touring the city. “In addition to being ideal for climbing, the bags are also built to withstand different types of rough adventures and activities,” the brand says. “This collection aims to keep its users focused and on the right path, with bags built with longevity in mind.” *To know more about the “Actualise Series,” visit* [*www.doughnutphilippines.com*](http://www.doughnutphilippines.com)*, @doughnutofficial\_ph on Instagram, and its stores located at Glorietta 3, SM Mall of Asia, SM Megamall, SM Seaside, TriNoma, Ayala Malls Manila Bay, and Ayala Malls Central Bloc.*
