SINGAPORE; 14 NOVEMBER 2024 – MONO (monocreators.com), the world’s leading design-driven brand for the modern musician, has released the MONO M80 Sleeve® 2.0, a minimalist yet robust solution perfectly suited for urban travel without compromising style.

This brand new design reimagines and elevates the original to new heights, featuring a fresh range of colors and a refined slim Headlock® system. The enhanced MONO Sleeve is engineered for durability, featuring industrial-grade webbing handles reinforced with steel rivets and bar-tack stitching, a water-resistant 420D shell, and plush interior lining. A spacious front pocket offers easy access to essentials like cables, tuners, and other gear, while the ergonomic shoulder straps ensure comfort during long-distance commutes. Sleek and compact, the MONO M80 Sleeve 2.0 is the perfect choice for guitarists on the go.

To bring the MONO M80 Sleeve® 2.0 to life in the launch campaign, MONO collaborated with renowned guitarist Rock Choi from Seoul, South Korea, known for his bold and precise playing style, and Susannah Joffe, an emerging indie-pop musician from Austin, Texas, USA. Together, the artists showcase the M80 Sleeve 2.0 in a dynamic video set in New York City, demonstrating how effortlessly the case integrates into the urban lifestyle while offering superior protection for their instruments.

The updated Sleeve 2.0 is available in classic Black and Ash, and for the first time in MONO’s history, debuts a range of new colors: Moonlight Blue, Amazon Green, and Burnt Orange, giving artists fresh avenues to express themselves through their gear.

The MONO M80 Sleeve® 2.0 features include:

  • An ergonomically designed case that is sleek and suited for urban travel, along with comfortable shoulder straps and a tactile side handle for easy carrying.
  • A water-resistant 420D shell and plush interior lining, built to military specs and extreme resistance to abrasion and the elements.
  • A slim Headlock® system, made from shock-absorbing EVA rubber, secures the guitar’s neck and headstock, while the EVA insole protects the body and strap pin from impact.
  • A spacious front pocket for essentials like laptops and cables, and a small interior mesh pocket for critical items.
  • Side-release chest buckles provide added security and a construction reinforced with steel rivets for extra durability.
  • Rock-solid, industrial webbing handles that are standard in MONO cases. Bar-tack stitching and steel rivets reinforce strength, while high-grade webbing offers a comfortable grip.
