ISHIE BOX black minimalist design wide shoulder strap box shoulder bag

'Beara Beara' creates bags for those who we have not yet met. But we sit and imagine who you may be. What secrets you have, what makes you smile, what makes you sigh. We sit at our messy desks and rummage through materials and shapes and patterns. We play. We play with our ideas. What will make your life a little brighter? We ignore the chaos in the street, the technology, the worries of life. We create something new. Every month we go home with our wages to give to our landlords and government and banks but still feel quite content. We like making strangers smile. We design bags for people we’ve never met. We sit quietly, imagining the roles you might play, the secrets you might hide; thinking about what will make you smile and what will make you sigh. We sat at the messy table, rummaging through all kinds of raw materials. What adds color to your life? is the answer we are trying to find. Ignore the hustle and bustle of the bustling streets, the rules and regulations, and the depressing worries. Beara Beara creates exquisite and unique bags and just wants you to smile. **Supply** In our minds we are Julio and Maria and Cesar and Natalia who also sit at their desks in Bolivia and twist and shape pieces of leather into something that has never been seen before. Our connection with our suppliers is one of the most special aspects about Beara Beara. A collaboration, which exists on mutual admiration, respect, understanding and general positivity. Improve people's lives through trade and not aid, is one of the principles on which the business is built, yet none of us imagined it would become so much fun . Beara Beara has a special and harmonious partnership with the manufacturer in Bolivia, based on mutual appreciation, understanding and respect. Encouraging local residents to find employment and improving local living standards has always been our goal. **Quality** As a young business we have been quite hideous to work with; a spoilt child wanting everything and wanting it right now. Over demanding in production schedules, uncompromising in material quality, relentless in the pursuit of our exact designs, pedantic in finding faults. Hats off to our suppliers for putting up with us in our infancy but now that we are a tad more mature we have been justified by the fact that our customers appreciate our continued pursuit of quality and perfection. Naturally dyed hand-picked hides. One-of -a-kind cloths displaying history in a modern style. Soft linings and strong sardware. Our aim is always to create a quality product that will reward our customer's trust in us. Beara Beara is a very young and fledgling brand. In this highly competitive fashion industry, we are committed to adhering to high-quality raw materials and original designs, and are gradually growing stronger. Natural dyed fabrics, unique patterned fabrics, pure cotton lining and tough leather structure have become synonymous with Beara Beara. In order to make you who buy Beara Beara feel this intention and thank you for your trust, we will never compromise on our insistence on quality. **Overview Overview** In 2021, we successfully launched ISHIE, a collaboration involving design, style, curiosity and friendship. Since then we have been discussing a second design and now it has finally come to fruition in the form of the Ishie Box. Ishie is a cool Canadian/Chinese model and stylist, while Jake is the founder and chief designer of Beara Beara. Their main features in designing this bag are a simple front with no clutter and a buckle at the top. The bag opens silkily from the top and the sides can flex and stretch when needed. Beauty in simplicity. Ishie likes straps that are wide and have a sense of presence, so she chooses to use them with the SADIE strap. We expect this bag to surpass the ISHIE 1.0 in popularity and become an important part of our permanent collection. **Detail details** Leather: cowhide Lining: 100% cotton Dimensions: length 21.5cm, width 7.5cm, height 17cm Weight: 506g Shoulder strap: length 76-105cm, width 3cm **FAQ FAQ** _The bag is made of natural leather?_ Yes, Beara Beara only uses natural leather. Beara Beara's bags are all made of unprocessed cowhide. The leather will have natural and different shades of texture, which is a major feature of handmade cowhide products. __Will leather become softer over time?__ Yes, the leather of the bag will gradually become softer and more flavorful after a few weeks of use. However, in order to maintain the shape of the bag and make the bag last longer, we recommend not to pack too heavy items. __Is leather waterproof?__ Natural leather is not waterproof. But whether it is leather or suede, you can use waterproof spray for protection. Since the spray may affect the gloss of the leather, please use it with caution. __Will the bag be damaged if it touches water?__ Leather will not be damaged if it absorbs a small amount of moisture. If a small amount of water is accidentally sprayed, it is recommended to hang the bag to dry naturally. __Will the suede part fade?__ It won't happen under normal use, especially when protected by waterproof spray. However, severe water immersion will still cause the color of the suede part to change. __Are the materials used organic?__ Yes, we use natural wool and natural leather from Bolivia. __Does Beara Beara join a fair trade organization?__ Since our establishment in 2012, it has always been our philosophy and original intention to help residents in third world countries, encourage them to find employment and provide economic assistance, and improve the living standards of local residents. We chose not to sign up to Fairtrade because we don’t think we need this level of recognition because that’s what our brand has always done. Origin/manufacturing method Bolivia
