Konbu is Crumpler’s name for a Japanese recycled nylon processed by swelling each fiber, then compressing it back down, which leaves a dry, papery hand that actually resembles the seaweed it’s named for. The Day By Day closes on a CNC-milled buckle machined from 7-series aircraft-grade aluminum instead of the usual stamped plastic hardware. $244 in this Seaweed colorway.
