The color of the bags above are known as kinari in Japanese. Strictly speaking, however, the word doesn't really refer to the color itself but to the unbleached or undyed raw fabric and thread. With the passage of time, the term has come to denote the color of the raw materials.
One of our signature bags, which is loved by many customers regardless of age or gender, is the H-04 series (H-04[Medium] and H-04[Large]).
S-10 and S-11 are our small pochettes.
Our original pattern, Kigi, is most striking with colorful patterns on off-white canvas.
One day, our boss, Shinzaburo, found something that looked much like a wood block used for printing at an antique shop.
It had four strange looking patterns like plants or fish bones.
In Japan, most elementary school children use the box-shaped backpack called randoseru. Starting school can be an anxious time that is intertwined with fun and excitement as well as new experiences. The randoseru accompanies the child each day to school, sharing and commiserating with each new experience or set back.
