Through a unique process, we transform canvas, which typically has a stiff and heavy image, into a lightweight and soft 100% cotton bag. With the sentiment of "wanting to be a long-time companion in each person's life," we have meticulously and carefully constructed this bag. It is durable and washable, offering the reassurance of always being able to keep it clean. It subtly supports your daily life, and as you use it over time, it will evolve into a unique item that is distinctly yours. ◆Things you should know *V.D.L.C. fabric, woven on shuttle looms rather than mass-production machines, is characterized by its "lightness," "softness," and a "patina" that develops over time rather than deterioration. We cherish this relaxed, natural texture. Because we use shuttle looms over 100 years old in Kurashiki, occasional "weaving flaws" may appear, which can look like "frays" at first glance. These are unavoidable when using old machinery. While we strive to minimize these by thorough inspection at the factory and careful fabric cutting, and by using them in inconspicuous areas if found, they cannot be entirely eliminated due to the nature of the machinery. We hope you will appreciate these weaving flaws as a mark of the authentic, vintage shuttle looms used in their creation, and embrace them as part of the bag's charm.
