https://prcdn.freetls.fastly.net/release_image/40106/204/40106-204-a3156b19feb9354801a3b023afdf4fab-900×1233.jpg The off-white color uses a slightly special fabric. The body and pockets (center and both sides) look like different materials, but they are actually all made of the same thread. This playful bag was made by a canvas factory that has pursued weaving technology, and the difference in appearance is created just by the way it is woven.

Plain weave is characterized by the fact that the structure is symmetrical due to the alternating weaving of warp and weft threads, giving the fabric firmness and stiffness. It is strong and does not easily lose its shape even when filled with luggage, so it can be used daily. Image

The reason the colors are different in the center and on both sides is because the front and back of the same fabric are used. Taking advantage of the characteristic of twill weave, where the colors of the warp and weft threads appear separately on the front and back of the fabric, the look changes depending on the position of the pocket. ・Simple, all plain navy

The uniform plain weave gives it a more formal look than off-white. Choose the color depending on the occasion you want to use it for. 4. Strong and lightweight! It stands on its own, so you can place it with peace of mind.

The body of both the off-white and navy colors is made of No. 8 canvas. The fabric feels sturdy just by touching it. (The smaller the number, the thicker the thread) *No bottom studs. ・Strong enough to hold its shape even when filled with a lot of things, ・Light enough for women to carry easily No. 8 canvas meets all these conditions. You’ll be surprised at how light it is, despite its sturdy appearance.

(To clearly show whether or not there is a pocket, the top of the smartphone is sticking out of the photo, but the pocket is deep enough to fit a smartphone inside)

The moderate friction of the canvas makes the handles less likely to slip off when hung from the shoulder, and they feel comfortable in the hand even when held by hand. Made of 100% cotton, it feels smooth to the touch. It feels good to hold.
