You may not even realize that there is a time when you leave your house when you instinctively check for the bare essentials.
Phone? Yes.
Wallet? Yes.
Sunglasses? Of course.
Earplugs? They should be in your bag.
Water? You could never go without it.
Everyone has a term for their daily carry. These are the things we automatically bring with ourselves.
At LOCH, we’ve always considered the importance of hydration to be part of the regular rhythm of daily life.
However, only carrying a bottle is not enough.
The LOCH Carry Edit consists of all of the small accessories you need on your way from one destination to another.
Apart from your drinkable bottle, you will take your sunglasses, your headphones, purse, and all the other accessories making you feel comfortable.
This is how carrying all of the essentials can be as easy as it seems.
What Exactly is the LOCH Carry Edit?
The LOCH Carry Edit can be thought of as the amalgamation of your every day essentials all in one effortlessly coordinated package.
First things first, the LOCH bottle which travels with you whether you are going to work, the gym, the beach, a trip to the coffee shop, or a weekend getaway.
Then there’s the small stuff.
Your sunglasses to protect you from the UAE sun.
Your earphones to listen to your fav tunes while commuting.
Your wallet for all of your important cards.
Followed by a pouch or strap that holds everything together, rather than letting it lie scattered at the bottom in your bag.
The idea here is not to increase the amount you carry.
It is instead to enhance the means of carrying it.
You Already Carry Your Bottle with You
Water bottles happen to be one of those everyday products people never forget to take with them when they leave home.
It can go in your work bag in the morning and stay next to your computer during the day. The water bottle can accompany you to your workout, go into the car for the evening, and so on.
This is the reason why the LOCH bottle is supposed to be more than just a means of drinking.
At present, you can choose one of the three sizes of LOCH bottles, which are either 650 ml, 900 ml, or 1200 ml volume, so that you can pick the right size for your day.
Perhaps you are planning to be out all day and wish to have some additional space.
Or you may be someone who believes that more water is always a good thing.
Introducing LOCH.
And here come the Sunglasses
If there’s one item that’s basically part of life in the UAE, it’s sunglasses.
Unfortunately, sunglasses like to vanish at the time of need. One minute, they’re right on your nose and the next you don’t know where they are more than likely resting in your bag.
Loch has come up with the perfect solution for this common dilemma.
Instead of tossing your sunglasses in your bag and hoping for the best, you can attach the case onto your Loch strap so that you know exactly where your cool shades are at all times.
No need to go through your backpack.
No leaving your sunglasses on your desk and forgetting where you put them.
Just lift, hold and carry them.
And since it is integrated into the bottle mechanism, you can have your glasses at your fingertips without taking up extra space in your pocket.
Headphones? Keep them handy.
There is another everyday hassle:
Where did I leave my headphones?
In the backpack?
In the vehicle?
Is it hiding under your laptop?
Is it tucked away in the pocket of jeans from yesterday?
The LOCH Earphone Pouch has been created to keep your earphones in an organised and accessible manner.
Made from eco-friendly and ethically sourced vegan leather, you can clip it to your LOCH strap or bag and eliminate the risk of losing your earphones.
Its small size ensures that it stays out of your way, but it is practical enough for you to ponder how you managed without it before.
A Lightweight Wallet Is Ideal.
The wallet is another part of your everyday life.
Whenever you want to find your card, ID or cash, it is the wallet that you pull out of your pocket.
LOCH Wallet is built on the same concept as other products from the line. Thanks to its lightweight and stylish designs, there is no need to carry your wallet anymore.
When you have all your essentials including a bottle, a pouch and sun-glasses case that share the same design concept, they provide for less randomness in your life.
Single Strap. Multiple Essential Items.
This is the actual point where LOCH Carry Edit comes into the picture.
The adjustable LOCH vegan leather strap with pouch allows you to easily carry your bottle and essential items together. The detachable pouch can either be used with the bottle or separately according to your needs.
The strap is compatible with LOCH’s 650ml, 900ml, and 1200ml bottles.
The strap is made from recycled plastic and comes finished with vegan leather and metal elements bringing practicality to a sophisticated option at the same time.
This way, you don’t have to worry about carrying a bottle in one hand, a phone in the other, and a pair of sunglasses that you can’t seem to find.
Your Carry Style in the UAE
Carry style varies from day to day based on where you are.
Carry for Work
On a standard day in the office, your carry would be composed of a LOCH bottle, a wallet, a pouch for earphones, and a holder for your sunglasses.
Simple.
The Weekend Carry
Are you going to get coffee, shopping or lunch?
You might not have to take all your belongings with you.
Having a LOCH water bottle with some small things can suffice.
The goal of this is to reduce the amount you carry with you but still have the necessary things you need.
The Exercise Carry
There are essentials when it comes to your gym routine.
Water is just one of them.
There are also your earphones, wallet, sunglasses, and maybe other little things.
Instead of stuffing your stuff in a gym bag, use a LOCH strap and accessories to keep everything that you need frequently within your reach.
Your LOCH bottle is for keeping hydrated while the earphones can sit comfortably in their pouch and be ready for your exercise routine.
UAE Carry
Each city possesses a unique version of its everyday carry.
While in the UAE, you always have a couple of essentials at hand.
Sunglasses, because of the sunny weather.
A water bottle, because hydration is key when you are going from the outdoors to the car to the air-conditioned space.
Earphones for travel.
A wallet for your daily necessities.
And a bag or strap to hold it all together.
Your routine might change daily, but these essentials rarely vary.
That is the reason why Carry Edit is about not inventing anything complex at all.
Make Your Own LOCH Carry Edit
There is no wrong way to put together your everyday carry.
Your personal carry can be a 650ml LOCH bottle with a case for your sunglasses, ready for that quick trip to grab a cup of coffee.
It can also be a 900ml LOCH bottle that carries your wallet and earpods on your workday.
Or, it may even be the large 1200ml LOCH Ultimate with the full Carry Edit for a busy day ahead of you.
Your carry needs to match what you usually do.
Pick what you actually need to bring along.
Make sure that it is easy to get to.
Leave behind items that you don’t need.
And do not forget to make sure that the essentials you bring along are easy to take out when necessary.
Take What You Value
The finest items you use every day are not necessarily those that stand out.
Rather, they are those that silently help you with your daily routine.
Think of a bottle that you can have with you all the time.
Or a case for sunglasses that makes it easy to get your sunnies at any time.
A case for your headphones so that it does not get lost in your bag.
A wallet that collects together the most needed things.
A simple strap that will allow carrying everything at once.
This is what is meant by LOCH Carry Edit.
The concept is that your everyday carry should not be something that needs your effort to use.
A wallet that keeps your necessities together.
A strap that integrates everything into one convenient package.
This is the concept of LOCH Carry Edit.
Because you should not feel like you are undertaking extra efforts for your daily belongings.
It should just work.
Your sun glasses, headphones and wallet. Everything that you need for the day ahead with LOCH.
