What to know about DSPTCH

Started with one camera strap

Richard Liu launched DSPTCH in 2010 with a locally made premium camera strap; the line now spans slings, daypacks, duffels, pouches, watch straps and utility belts.

Technical textiles, military-derived construction

Packs are built from ballistic nylon, X-PAC and Dyneema Composite Fabric, with modular hardware, muted colorways and no decoration beyond what the bag needs.

Mostly US-made at $100-250

Production remains largely domestic while most packs sit between roughly $100 and $250, with Dyneema editions priced above that.
