Making sure I understand...

They used Frost River backpacks in the movie, then did a co-branding campaign with Filson to sell look-a-likes.

Not sure enough people are going to buy a backpack seen in a movie to make any sort of difference...

Ya, don't think many people are dropping $300 on a retro backpack from a movie that bombed.

It’s not really that anyone would buy it but more they stole the product and sold it through a different company. Tbh I buy one backpack a decade so I feel you, the backpack itself is a gimmick
