■ About 'Monchhichi Retro Pocket Tissue Pouch' (5 types in total)
This is a pouch designed with the 'Monchhichi' character, inspired by pocket tissues.
The pouch, with its retro design that evokes a sense of nostalgia, comes in a lineup of five different Monchhichi designs. This includes 'Home,' which features an illustration from a pocket tissue actually sold in the Showa era, and 'Sitting,' which uses a photo of the stuffed toy sitting in its pacifier pose. All pouches are meticulously designed, with a 'dispensing slot' on the back and a 'name' field, just like actual pocket tissues where you would write your name with a permanent marker.
It's sized to fit a standard pocket tissue, and since the opening is a zipper, you can securely carry items like lip balm and combs.
