-- A newly announced collection of full-grain leather straps by Robust Goods juxtaposes the material excellence and artisanal motifs of Italian leather with the professional design language of the Apple Watch Ultra 49mm. Alongside its flagship model, the R01, the store's updated line pays homage to Italian leathers, which were de rigueur among motorcycle racers of the 1950s and 1960s.

A company spokesperson explains that the Leather Strap R01 is Robust Goods' bestselling model, adding that the brand's lineup balances heritage and utility, foregrounding leather that softens with wear and develops a lived-in patina over time. The result is a strap that reads as executive in the boardroom and is functional outdoors, blending into the professional styling of the Apple Watch Ultra rather than distracting from it.
The Leather Strap R01 is crafted from premium Italian full-grain leather and secured with stainless steel hardware for long-term stability. The broader and thicker band with discreetly accented stitching improves comfort and breathability, while remaining purpose-built for the Apple Watch Ultra and Ultra 2.
Robust Goods' Racing Leather Strap extends the narrative with perforated detailing that references mid-century motorsport design—ventilation for comfort, character for presence. Available in workhorse tones like black, brown, olive, and tan, the leather palette nods to the era of tool watches and road-worn gloves without slipping into nostalgia.
"At Robust Goods, excellence isn't a bonus—it's our baseline. We work with premium Italian full-grain leather that softens with age and develops a rich patina because the strap should match the quality of the watch," explains the representative. "Our R01 band for the Apple Watch Ultra reflects classic watch culture without the luxury markup."
By emphasizing durability over disposability and responsible sourcing across its supply, Robust Goods positions its leather collection as a refined alternative to commodity straps—designed for years of use, not seasons. The pieces are compatible with Apple Watch Ultra 49mm and Ultra 2, as well as Series 1-10, and Series SE watches.
