Products that are out of stock will be manufactured after your order.

A mini tote bag dyed with genuine indigo dyeing

A bag with the same shape as DTB-300 , but randomly dyed with indigo.

It is designed to hold a long wallet, smartphone, key case, pouch, and plastic bottle.
The fluffy design makes the most of the softness and texture of deerskin, while the handles and base are made from sturdy cowhide.
The interior is made of stain-resistant nylon material, and the magnet in the center does not interfere with the design.

About Leather
The leather used is from wild deer exterminated within Nagano Prefecture, tanned and pre-treated in Iida, and then dyed with genuine indigo at the Hama Dyeing Studio in Matsumoto City. This is part of the Shinshu Ethical Project.
The "Aihaji Leather" pattern was jointly developed by the historic Hama Dyeing Studio, which has been in operation since 1911, Mersen Co., Ltd. in Iida City, and Gruber Leather. The pattern is tie-dyed, so each piece is different and no two are the same, making each finished piece one of a kind.
Please understand that since this leather is grown in the natural environment of Nagano, it may have scratches from branches, etc. However, we are grateful for the blessings of the earth and process them into products.
*Please note that the photos are for illustrative purposes only as each indigo dye has a different pattern and color.

The cowhide used for the sole and handle is tanned in Himeji, and the leather that has been shrunk (kneaded) is soft and goes well with the deerskin. Deerskin is a by-product of local production and consumption, while cowhide is also a by-product of meat.

*If the item is "0 in stock", it will be shipped within about a month, but please note that it may take longer if the material is out of stock.
