Looking back ULYSSES products…

minimo1

Our ring strap 【minimo】 has 3 different wooden types: rosewood, sawo, hard maple with a various colour of strings: dark brown, moss green, red, wild berry for standard colours, valencia etc. for special colours. To recall the past, minimo was even more colourful before.

About 2 years ago, we tried some limited colours. Wild berry, cherry pink, baby pink, valencia, sky blue… Wild berry and valencia currently still exist as special colours, but the other colours are also appeared fresh since I look them after an interval.
We try to choose well matched colours from many choices for the strings of minimo, but usually they are less than we expect. Often it is rather struggling, like “a bit calmer tone would be better though…” We want you to use minimo for long time with your favorite cameras, so the string has to be durable. If we consider that condition, the choices of colours are more limited.

We also had minimo made of oak wood. I personally quite liked it but this item is now discontinued.

Other example, Sputnik used to have more variation in colours too. Although the stitch colours match with the body colours basically in the current design, I liked the accent of white stitches a lot.
The colour combination called “half black” also had a quite a bit of popularity and I was asked about it even after we discontinued. It came in a combination of black body and red loop. We sell “cool black” at the moment which has black body with red thread.

A little before that, it was about the time I became a member of ULYSSES team, I wanted a small camera case, 【Lino】. The texture of linen and leather fitted my taste and I still feel the same when I look back.

We will produce various items with new colours and more attractive materials!

What kind of things do you like?
