Sasicco Square Tote Bag

Everyday bag made with traditional stitching

Clothes made for martial arts like judo and kendo (Japanese fencing) need to be extra strong to be able to withstand the hardnesses of practice and competition. This is also a quality necessary for an everyday bag that accompanies you on all your shopping and urban explorations. So the Sasicco Square Tote Bag is a match made in heaven: all the experience and know-how martial arts uniform manufacturer Tanei from Aichi Prefecture has accumulated in its 100+ years of existence is here distilled into the creation of a very special bag.

Which actually is three: the Sasicco Square Tote Bag comes in M (240 x 300 x 130 mm / 9.4 x 11.8 x 5.1"), L (330 x 390 x 150 mm / 13 x 15.4 x 5.9"), and LL (350 x 480 x 180 mm / 13.8 x 18.9 x 7") to fit different needs that go beyond a regular tote bag and cross into the area of handbags or even briefcases. You can get it in black or the black and white checkered pattern used in the jackets of the firefighters of Edo (old Tokyo). Both versions are made of fine Mikawa cotton from Aichi Prefecture, stitched in the sashiko style responsible for its durability and special style!
