Quality Materials and Craftmanship
At GBY, we prioritize quality and durability in every product we create. Our commitment to using the finest materials ensures that our ultralight backpacks are not only lightweight but also robust and reliable for daily use. We combine minimalist design, quality materials and high-end craftsmanship to deliver superior products.
YKK Zippers
We use only custom Japanese YKK water-resistant zippers and sliders on all our bags. YKK zippers are renowned for their durability and smooth operation. While some manufacturers may claim their zippers are "waterproof," we prefer to provide an accurate description: our YKK zippers are highly water-resistant, offering excellent protection against the elements. The superior quality of YKK ensures that our bags stand up to daily wear and tear without compromising on performance.
360HD™ — high-density foam protection
Our 360HD high-density foam protection is specially designed to safeguard your valuable devices. This 6 mm thick foam is formulated to maintain its protective qualities even after prolonged use. Whether you're carrying a $3k laptop or other delicate items, our foam ensures they remain secure and well-protected in any situation.
SS2-Ultra™ — Waterproof fabric
The SS2-Ultra fabric, sourced from Japan, is a cornerstone of our ultralight backpacks. This medium-grid ripstop nylon is ultra-lightweight, soft to the touch, and incredibly durable. Coated with two proprietary layers, SS2-Ultra offers complete waterproof protection, making our backpacks ideal for any weather conditions.
QD-Ultra™ — Quilted water-resistant fabric
Our QD-Ultra fabric is another exceptional material sourced from Japan. This micro-ripstop nylon is quilted in-house for added durability and water resistance. Despite its lightweight nature, QD-Ultra is soft to the touch and provides reliable protection against moisture.
Our approach to design is minimalist yet high-end, focusing on delivering sleek, functional, and aesthetically pleasing products. Each of our bags is optimized for ultralight daily use in the real world, ensuring you get the best performance and longevity from your purchase.
