Keep it long, treasure it long.

Leather that conforms to the body

BIGI is a lightweight and easy-to-use leather tote bag. The triangular shape when held is beautiful, and the soft body, shoulder strap, and reinforcing parts all have different personalities, even though they are made of the same tanned leather. This is because the designer himself carefully creates the bag while feeling the expression and feel of the material. You can feel the maker's attention to detail.

MARVELETS products are made with the concept of "things that become deeper over time" and "things that become more cherished as they fade". They are not mass-produced products, but are things that you will want to use for a long time. They are made of carefully selected materials that become deeper over time, and even new products have an atmosphere like vintage items.

Practicality and beauty

Contrary to its heavy appearance, BIGI is a leather tote bag made of lightweight cowhide. The bag is not lined, and features a rough cut opening that brings out the texture of the leather itself. The opening can be opened by simply hanging a hook, which shows the ease of use and elegance that comes from a simple design.

The gusset is well made, and the bag can stand on its own despite being made of soft leather. The plump shape makes it very spacious, and you can safely store A4 files and PCs. The inside has a pocket with a divider, so you can store things you want to take out quickly, such as cards, smartphones, and keys. The lining is made of cotton linen with leather piping, so you can easily take things in and out without any snags. In addition, MARVELETS products change to a deeper color and luster as you use them, so they would make a great gift for someone special, with the hope that they will accompany you for a long time along with your bag.

A deep flavor that you can feel from the first time you use it

Tanned leather is generally called tanned leather, and is tanned using vegetable tannins (mainly tree tannins) or synthetic tannins. NOELU, which has an atmosphere from the moment you start using it, is made from vegetable tanned cowhide tanned with plants. Each color has a deep flavor like a one-of-a-kind item lined up in an antique shop. By applying overdye and vintage processing and soaking it in oil during dyeing, the leather becomes more prone to creases, and the more you use it, the more it changes into a unique item that is unique to you, which is one of the reasons you will want to use it for a long time.

Putting the Beliefs He Cultivated in France into His Bags

MARVELETS founder and creator, Hideji Mitsuda, was influenced by his mother, who was a couture designer, and worked as a fashion designer in Paris, France. At that time, he happened to visit a bag factory run by a senior designer, and was shocked by the charm of leather and the fun of processing, which later led to the start of MARVELETS.

Clothes are usually completed by many people. On the other hand, bags have the charm of being able to dye leather in the color of your choice and finish them almost entirely by hand. Attracted by this charm, Mitsuda moved to Okayama Prefecture, where he could devote himself more to making bags, and started MARVELETS. "Things that gain depth over time" and "Things that fade and become more cherished." This is Mitsuda's concept of manufacturing. Europeans know that the more you use things for a long time, the more their value will increase. Influenced by this European culture, Mitsuda designs bags that are timeless and yet unique. Mitsuda is in charge of all the patterns, sewing, dyeing, and finishing, and all the important parts of MARVELETS bags are done by hand. In addition to leather, he is particular about natural materials and vegetable tanning, which reveal the power of nature over time, and combines materials such as linen and wool with finishing based on original recipes. The exquisite combination of sensibility and techniques cultivated over many years creates bags with a unique texture and antique atmosphere that is unique to MARVELETS.
