San Francisco-based accessory brand DSPTCH (pronounced “dispatch” despite a lack of vowels) produces minimally designed goods for everyday use that are doubly rich in technical features. Like many, we first became familiar with the brand through its nylon webbing camera straps, but these days it's backpacks and totes that make up a significant portion of the EDC brand's collection.
Showing its capacity for creativity even when working within the confines certain materials require, DSPTCH has released a limited collection of ultralight bags made of Dyneema—a fiber that, by weight, is stronger than steel—with its SF neighbors and dye creatives, Idle Worship.
Idle Worship focuses on bringing cosmic tie-dye styles to organic fibers, but its team was able to develop a technique for making color stick to synthetic Dyneema fibers, which are so durable that products using it typically only come in raw white.
