◎KENTO HASHIGUCHI × Traditional craftsman Isao Shirai (hand-kneaded silver leaf)
This shopper bag was created through a collaboration between traditional Kyoto craftsmen and young bag designers active in Kyoto.
Our uniquely developed "silver leaf" is made using the traditional "hand-kneaded foil" technique used in Kyoto Nishijin, and by spraying ink onto the leaf, it creates a three-dimensional shadow effect, giving the illusion of an uneven metal surface. As the process is all done by hand, the resulting hand-kneaded silver leaf is a one-of-a-kind material.◎Work Description
The "shopper bag" was inspired by paper bags and has been sublimated into a bag that is also strong. It is based on a paper bag, but it is not too casual and has a sense of elegance. In particular, the metal fittings on the top four corners are accents that make it look like a bag rather than a paper bag. It also has a bottom stud so you can place it on the ground without hesitation. The handles are thin but are more durable than they look, and you can carry things like a computer. It has an inner pocket so you can use it according to your needs.
・Both the vertical and horizontal shopper bags are just the right size to fit A4 files.
