Vegan cellulose fiber strap with apple peel lining.
A fibrous surface gives the ColaReb Carta a distinctive look that reads almost like papier-mâché. The texture is lightly irregular, with a matte finish that contrasts with polished cases and smooth dials. Its flat build keeps it tight to the case, which suits minimalist watches and casual designs where a traditional strap would feel out of place. Made in Italy, it is a fully vegan strap built from a paper-based material developed for durability rather than decoration.
Instead of leather, this strap is constructed from a patented cellulose fiber material derived from paper. The surface has a dry, slightly textured feel, while the structure holds its shape without becoming rigid. It is designed to handle regular wear and is fully vegan, with raw materials sourced from certified forests. On the underside, an apple peel lining provides a soft, breathable layer that is hypoallergenic against the skin. Stitching is kept minimal and tonal, with clean edges and no added bulk.

The strap wears thin and flat against the wrist. It maintains its shape more than soft leather but still bends comfortably during use. Best suited for those who want a lightweight strap with a bit of structure rather than a soft, draping feel.

Splash resistant, suitable for light moisture such as hand washing or rain.
Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth only. Do not soak or rinse under running water. Avoid excessive moisture, abrasion, or prolonged exposure to heat. Allow the strap to air dry completely if it becomes damp.
ColaReb is an Italian watch strap manufacturer based in Rome, producing leather and microfiber straps since 1990. The brand works with small family-run workshops where edging, stitching, and color preparation are completed by hand, with all straps designed and made in Italy using Italian materials. Natural variation in grain and color reflects this approach and the materials used.
