Eye-catching backpack and Sakura Card pass case are ready to make your commute to school or work feel a little more magical.
Japan’s iconic boxed lunch serves as inspiration for a bag big enough to hold multiple meals.
Further proof that the beloved, globular Nintendo video game star is marketed very differently in the two countries.
This Japanese company creates bags and smartphone pouches using the same type of distinctive plates and stitching found on samurai armour.
Whether you use them as a pouch or a makeup case, now you can carry a sweet little rabbit around with you wherever you go!
Not only do they look cute, they also feature a clever tie design that’s been used in traditional Japanese furoshiki textile art for centuries.
The storage capacity of the popular anello bags seems to rival that of Mary Poppins’ magic bag!
This is just one of the items in a range of delicious accessories designed for meat lovers.
The classic Japanese school backpack hits the street with unusual materials and cutting-edge designs.
