VASCO, a bag made in Japan

Today I'll introduce the bag I usually use.
The brand is VASCO.
It's a Japanese brand, and of course it's made in Japan.

The full vegetable tanned leather from Himeji is carefully dyed one by one using a traditional hand-dyeing method called "Okazome", and then the leather is soaked in oil to create a burnt look, giving it a deep vintage texture.
The thick and sturdy texture of the leather and the deep color are captivating. Haha

Okazome is a technique that was apparently developed in the Santa Croce region of Italy in the 19th century.
The bag changes color and becomes more flavorful over time, so it's fun to use it.
It's the same as denim. Haha
In recent years, leather craftsmen with the skills to hand-dye leather have become one of the best in the world, and hand-dyed leather seems to be rare.
I also like that the liner is made of cotton oxford, which is very durable.

There are good bags in many countries.
There are also bags in Italy, France, and the United States.
But VASCO is not inferior to bags from around the world.
Not only jeans, but bags are also great in Japan! Well, I don't sell it in my store. Haha
If you like this bag, search for it on Google right away. Haha
