Description
Sport-luxe craftsmanship meets urban utility in a backpack defined by supple leather and signature Dsquared2 attitude.
The Ceresio 9 drawstring backpack channels Dsquared2’s irreverent Milanese spirit into a refined everyday carry. Drawing its name from the duo’s iconic Ceresio 9 restaurant and pool club in Milan — a creative hub for celebrities, artists, and fashion insiders — this silhouette embodies the brand’s flair for blurring the line between high-fashion and streetwear. The clean, rucksack-inspired shape is elevated by buttery soft calfskin leather, finished with a natural grain that catches the light with understated sophistication.
Designed for the modern traveller and city dweller, the drawstring closure opens to a thoughtfully organized interior, while adjustable shoulder straps and a top carry handle offer versatile styling options. A discreet front zip pocket and the polished metal hardware — complete with a debossed Dsquared2 logo plaque — reinforce the meticulous attention to detail that has defined the Caten twins’ work since they debuted on the Milan runways in 1994.
Whether paired with tailored separates for an off-duty model look or thrown over a leather jacket for weekend escapes, the Ceresio 9 backpack is a statement of effortless cool — the kind of investment accessory that transcends seasons and trends.
