This tote bag is a special order for the brand SASICCO, produced by Tanei Corporation, a manufacturer that has been faithfully working with dojis for over 100 years in pursuit of functionality. The soft and strong Mikawa cotton used for this bag is called ‘sashiko’, which is made by stitching the fabric with different threads for reinforcement and decoration. The thick, durable fabric has an uneven surface and is characterised by its excellent moisture retention and absorption properties.
The bag has a simple design that is easy to use and match with casual coordinates, one pocket on the outside and one zipper pocket on the inside for storing small items. The lining is laminated and the bottom has a gusset so it can stand on its own. A special order from BEAMS Japan uses a brightly coloured belt for the handle, which is used for boys. The result is a bag with the durability of a dojo manufacturer and one that you can enjoy as it ages as you use it more and more.
