The 3-way shoulder bag made of hanpu (canvas fabric) was produced by a company in Yonezawa City in Yamagata Prefecture where remnants of the castle town can be still seen. The size can easily fit a small laptop computer and A4 files, and it can be transformed into a tote bag, shoulder bag or backpack, allowing you to use in various situations such as in business, commuting to school and overnight trips. The three differently-sized pockets on the front of the bag add to its functionality; the vertical pocket can store computer cables and a folding umbrella, and the smaller pockets are perfect for storing a mouse and other small items. The different pocket designs add a good accent.
Hanpu is a strong, durable and water-repellent material that can be used for a long time. New hanpu fabric feels rigid and stiff to the touch at first, but it softens as you use it while just like denim jeans, the texture and color are enhanced with time. Maintenance and repair services are available to ensure that the products can be used for a long time. The warmth and nostalgic feel that the cotton fabric exudes as well as commitment to natural materials rooted in the Japanese culture also make the product appealing.
