I have worked to develop new felt items since last April. I made 4 designs and 2 are now in production - Folding Bag and Osampo Bag.
This is the Folding Bag, as the name tells, it is possible to be folded and packed into the box behind.
Why folding? - maybe because I am a Japanese:)) I think that a product had better be compact to fit in a limited space, and also had better have 2 or more functions so that you don't need every single product for each purpose - so does this bag. This bag can be a self-standing box as well. That is why the handles are fixed inside.
Starting from the theme of "folding", I made several models with paper at first - like "origami" and "furoshiki" (a complete square cloth to wrap and carry things), by folding and unfolding, repeatedly in many ways.
Finally I found the way - turning over. The diagonal cutting lines are folding lines, and by turning it over, the bag gets tension being open. I was excited to find the way, that was a small invention. I love the moment when I find a solution in my design. This is adictive!
Apple green and gray colors are available. Made of 3mm thickness of 100% wool industrial felt.
Then these are the Osampo Bags. "Osampo" means walking and strolling in Japanese.
The bottom can be folded. Yes, this bag has the same concept as the Folding Bag. It becomes thinner by folding the bottom without damaging the front form.
I often go for walks, and always felt uncomfortable to have my cell phone, wallet and keys in my pockets. I don't need such a big bag, but just a small bag that the minimum things that I need can be in ... so this is the bag I wanted.
I found this bag is easy to ride a bicycle, too. Use this bag to go for a walk, small trip from your office as the second bag, and choose the color according to your feeling!
Apple green, gray and light brown are available. Made of 3mm thickness of 100% wool industrial felt.
