https://prcdn.freetls.fastly.net/release_image/131772/19/131772-19-282a63f6b3cadfc701542e622401af6d-2000×1390.png Matsumoto Co., Ltd. was founded in 1948 and has been manufacturing and selling school bags for over 60 years. We have independently developed the Kurupita lock, which can be easily opened and closed with just one finger. The Kurupita lock is an original lock that allows you to smoothly open and close the cover (lid) of your school bag. It can be opened with one finger and locked tightly just by bringing it close, making it easy for even children to handle. The development began over ten years ago. At that time, school bags were evolving every year, but functional parts such as locks remained largely unchanged. Therefore, we focused on the lock that connects the lid and the main unit, which children touch every day. “Even though the number of stylish and cool school bags is increasing, the parts that open and close them remain inorganic.” “Then let’s add design and playfulness here as well.” “I want to incorporate fun features that will make me excited every time I use my school bag.” Because you use your school bag every day, it’s an exciting experience every time you open it. With that in mind, “Kurupita” was born. A nice feature that allows even weak children to open and close easily For children who are clumsy with their hands or have weak hands, opening and closing locks can be surprisingly difficult. As a result, there are many incidents where people feel lazy and don’t lock the door, or they accidentally forget to lock it, and when they bow, the cover opens and the contents fall out. “Kurupita” reduces the burden on children! Convenient specifications that allow you to easily open it with one finger and lock it tightly just by bringing it close. Furthermore, if your school bag is compatible with Kurupita Change, you can change the design of the lock (sold separately). Your child’s “I’m going” will definitely be more fun! Of course, you can rest assured of its durability. With reliable quality that has passed rigorous tests, you can use it comfortably every day.

Matsumoto creates school bags with an eye on children’s future As times have changed, children’s individuality has come to be respected more and more. We live in an era where diversity and new evolution are required for school bags. Matsumoto has and will continue to put children first. Through school bags, we help children develop a rich sense of sensitivity and playfulness. We will continue to contribute to Japanese manufacturing in order to preserve the school bag culture that is a symbol of schoolchildren.
