Walter Van Beirendonck x Eastpak
The Monster returns in our latest collaboration with Walter Van Beirendonck. Our functional design meets the Belgian designer's fearless creativity in the new Walter Pak'r backpack.
A creative collaboration spanning over two decades
The Monster Backpack was first unleashed in 2004 through our first collaboration with Van Beirendonck, and later returned as a collector's piece in 2014. Now in 2026, the design makes its comeback as the new Walter Pak'r backpack, marking the latest chapter in a creative partnership spanning over two decades.
On the runway
Our collaboration was first revealed during the Menswear Fall/Winter 2026-2027 Paris Fashion Week. Van Beirendonck’s show SCARE the CROW / SCARECROW unveiled a collection rooted in Outsider Art and the unfiltered energy of youth culture.
