What to know about Herschel Supply Co.

Herschel Supply Co. designs backpacks, duffels, totes, hip packs and travel luggage from Vancouver, taking its name from Herschel, Saskatchewan, where three generations of the Cormack family grew up. Signature styles include the Little America mountaineering-style backpack and the Novel duffel, both finished with the brand's striped cotton lining. The range extends into apparel, headwear and kids' gear. Founders Jamie and Lyndon Cormack returned to direct leadership after CEO Jon Hoerauf departed in 2023, with the business refocusing on direct-to-consumer selling. Investors include Alliance Consumer Growth and Eurazeo.
