MINIMAL AND SLEEK

When designing for the office and formal environs, we wanted to nail the aesthetics. These pieces would be expressive and high in style points but also minimal and clean.

All-black with smooth lines, nailing that perfect and versatile silhouette.

LUXE LEATHER-FEEL

We say it every time, one of the single most important parts of any softgoods product is the material selection. If you’re like me, when I hear the word “Bellroy”, you think world-class leather.

Thing is, the Pencil Case and Tech Kit both only use small details made of leather. So opting for a more luxe feel, we’ve made leather one of the heroes.

On the Tech Kit we placed a panel along the back spine, and inside the finger loops in the Pencil Case, so you interact with it each time you use your carry. 

And, of course, Bellroy’s premium, environmentally certified leather, will only get better with age.

AUXIKKO EXPRESSION 

But, just adding “more leather” wasn’t enough. We went custom. We worked with the tannery to develop our own unique embossed leather for amazing handfeel, grip, and aesthetics.

The leather is deeply embossed with our new and very own custom Auxikko pattern.

A coming together of two distinct inspirations: the ancient Japanese Kikkō pattern based on the nested hexagons of turtle shells. And the modern engineering concept of auxetics – structures or materials that transform under pressure, making for incredible strength and performance.

Combine the two and you have tradition and innovation, science and art. A perfect balance.

UNIQUE BAIDA

Let me just say one word: Apex. Bellroy’s Apex backpack is absolutely cutting-edge and the fabric they developed for it… bad ass. I’m talking about Bellroy’s most technical offering, their 100% recycled Baida Nylon, a fabric uniquely developed at a specialist mill in South Korea. 

And in an all new custom colorway: Black Ash. This particular Baida Nylon uses a slightly different color treatment, it has a new pigment used in it so it can achieve 'true black' while being crinkled.

ULTRA-CLEAN AND WATERPROOF

While we dig the metal zippers on both products, a performance upgrade was called for. We went with a favorite: YKK Aquaguard zippers. Not only notch up the performance of this piece, but to visually wash away any zipper teeth to keep this silhouette super clean and minimal. The final cherry on top, leather zipper pullers with debossed logos and a tasteful minimal orange stitch-line.

HI-VIS POP

Of course, we’re all about high-vis interiors. This is no secret. It’s a functional feature, helping you locate small items in low light scenarios. And being that our brand color is orange, we went with an eye-piercing fluorescent orange. We selected nylon ripstop for durability and for vibrant color saturation.

Bellroy x Carryology Pencil Case (CE04) Features:

Widemouth opening splays out like an EDC tray so you have full access to all your small items inside.

Inspired by a “bon bon”, you can grab both ends via the finger loops, making the experience fun and easy.

Though it’s called a pencil case, it’s designed for more than just pencils; great for cables and other EDC essentials.
