The main body material uses waterproof suede made from rare 2mm-thick high-quality raw hides from North America. It is characterized by high water repellency, with a beautiful brushed texture and a waterproofing agent permeated to the core through double surface processing and dyeing. You can enjoy the material texture unique to suede and the deep coloring.
To enhance waterproofness, the interior adopts a PVC-coated bright nylon fabric, and the front zipper uses a water-resistant type to guard against water flooding into the inside.
The shoulder parts are made of suede, which also reduces the weight of the luggage. The drawcord with a part that allows length adjustment in one action is colored to match this fabric. You can enjoy the bag in various shapes according to your mood and wearing scenes.
The two brand marks are finished with embossing, a specification that emphasizes the texture of the leather.
