A newly introduced, rectangular backpack, made in collaboration with Rikiya Matsumura, cut from MAN-TLE’s heat treated nylon in a dark, navy tinged grey. Features two top carry handles, a large primary zip compartment, a padded laptop sleeve, two smaller inner padded folio pockets, and an external zip-closure pocket. The wide body creates a surprisingly large capacity that easily accommodates larger goods, everyday items, or packing for a weekend away. Completed with heavy bound seams for a hard wearing finish and padded shoulder straps featuring MAN-TLE’s no-slip, laser-cut aluminum buckles.
MAN-TLE’s nylon cloth is produced in Fukui, Japan in close collaboration with a local mill. The cloth is boiled in a chloride solution, causing it to shrink permanently, producing the characteristic crinkled surface and a tighter weave that imparts structural water resistance. Both the technique and appearance of the cloth pay homage to traditional techniques used in the production of Japanese Obi belts wherein silk is boiled in sea water.
