You never know when you’ll run into a magical moment on the streets of New York City. A quick coffee run on a Saturday morning or an impromptu lunch with friends? You want to look good coming and going, especially if you have to throw on an outfit and grab your bag on the way out the door. The hands-free nature of a cross-body strap, like the Rogue’s, is key for on-the-fly style—it coolly ties off-duty pieces like a well-loved tee and jeans together while keeping your essentials organized and secure, no matter where the day takes you.

In a constantly evolving city, a change in perspective, like a view from above, is often inspiring. Many of the Rogue’s iterations are sparked by the city skyline’s silhouettes. From the Empire State Building’s geometric Art Deco shape to the modern sleekness of One World Trade, the clean, geometric lines of the Rogue are as compelling as the dynamic views and buildings themselves. No matter how you wear the Rogue’s versatile silhouette—be it with a richly textured shearling coat or sleek leather pants—the look is sure to be as striking as the city itself.
