Description
Developed in Japan, Konbu is a textile that immediately stands apart. With the familiar look of canvas, it feels entirely different in hand, a crisp, dry nylon with a natural crepe texture and a structured feel that holds its shape. For this capsule, we built our freestanding tote in a Konbu shell, pairing its lightweight structure and rich matte depth with our signature layout to create a CDT24 that emphasizes form, feel, and everyday utility.
Feature Breakout & Description
1. IT’S KONBU
Developed in Japan, Konbu is a 100% recycled nylon textile inspired by the texture and characterof seaweed. Using a proprietary process, each fiber is swollen and compressed to create a dense,structured fabric with a crisp, dry hand feel and uniform crepe texture that gives it a refined,uniform character from day one.
2. CANVAS LOOK, LIGHTER WEIGHT
Konbu has a familiar, canvas-like presence but is constructed from lightweight nylon, resulting inweight savings to that of comparable structured materials. This delivers a textile that holds itsshape, maintains durability, and sheds some of the expected bulk.
3.. MAGNETIC CLOSURE
The main closure is lined with two rows of cylindrical magnets, creating a secure but flexibleclosure that won’t wear out or break.These magnets keep the tote closed for security and weather protection while on the go, but witha slight pull, offer you the same ease and convenient access that tote bags are known for.
4. INTEGRATED LUGGAGE PASS-THROUGH
Behind the exterior quick-access pocket lies a tiny magnet that hides a secret luggagepass-through sleeve. Without opening any zippers or closures, CDT24 can drop onto rollerluggage for easier travel.
5. VERSATILE CARRY
The two handles are constructed from a custom-woven tubular nylon webbing with a foam corefor a comfortable carry by hand or by shoulder.Each handle also contains three low-profile magnets set in the apex so they can stand andsupport each other. This keeps the handles ready to pick up at a moment’s notice.
6. FINER DETAILS
