Nearly two years ago, DSPTCH and THEWWW began discussing doing something unexpected for one of DSPTCH’s bag models. We started with the Slingpack as the base of the project. The concept for this capsule also started with a conversation with Nur Abbas of Gnuhr studios. It centered around the practicality of the outdoor/tactical industry’s products. From here we explored the over so slightly variances in color standards for Coyote Brown which would come through color based on materials and trims. The USA flag patches were custom made, the DSPTCH slingpacks, unit zip pouches and hats are custom made in the USA. Daiki Suzuki of Engineered Garments was an influence here with his usage of mixing the shades of the same color to create something new
.Once the concept around the bag solidified, we built out the collection to support the Slingpack. DSPTCH’s namesake focuses on durability and functionality as primary tenants of the brand, and this is communicated in the quality and craftsmanship of the product itself. This kind of communication served as the graphic direction for the supporting apparel pieces. The mind mapping of this capsule, from practicality to functionality to various degrees of color standards, to communication and lifetime quality craftsmanship all crossed over and merged to create this collection we are immensely proud of. Thank you all to those who continue to support small independent businesses and artists alike.
