Keep it long, treasure it long.

Embracing the beauty of white space

There are bags you can wear every day that enhance the look of the person carrying them. The TAMPICO shoulder bag is a perfect example of this. Its striking design, stripped of unnecessary ornamentation and highlighting the quality of the materials, is a subtle elegance that becomes more and more pleasing the longer you use it. It's easy to see why so many people, both men and women, have long-standing ties to this bag.

Simplicity Makes Materials Important

TAMPICO's signature cotton canvas is made by bonding two layers of lightweight cotton together. The dense weave creates strength while maintaining lightness, resulting in a refined silhouette. The supple, elegant look without any sense of roughness is another reason this material is a popular everyday bag for adults.

The leather strap's natural length makes the most of the leather's natural size, and individual variations are an attractive feature. Even taller people can easily wear this bag crossbody, and by shortening the adjuster, it can also be worn comfortably over the shoulder. Despite its compact appearance, it has ample storage space for a long wallet and a 500ml bottle. It's a reliable bag that you'll naturally reach for when traveling, as well as for everyday outings.

The interior pocket is deep and wide enough to fit a smartphone, ensuring small items stay safely stored. The snap closure at the opening is a nice touch, ensuring the bag closes securely when needed without compromising the overall look.


Items that blend into your life

TAMPICO was born as a bag brand from J.MARTIN TREPOINTES. J.MARTIN TREPOINTES was founded in 1928 in Moussidan, a small town on the outskirts of Bordeaux, France, known for its leather goods. Since its founding, the company has been a highly acclaimed manufacturer of high-quality leather shoe welts and leather, rubber, and crepe soles. Its exceptional shoe welt production techniques have made it a top supplier to European luxury shoe brands. TAMPICO, a bag and lifestyle goods brand, was launched in 1992 by Mrs. Nicole Martin, president of J. MARTIN TREPOINTES, a company known for its exceptional leather craftsmanship. The name TAMPICO combines "TAM," the leather material, with "PICO," a zigzag pattern, evoking the leather sewing process. While maintaining the quality of materials, durability, and exquisite details cultivated through years of experience, the brand creates high-quality items that blend seamlessly into everyday life, rather than for special occasions. Since its inception, each piece has been meticulously handcrafted by artisans, and this tradition continues even now, more than 20 years later. Even in France, brands like this are becoming increasingly rare.
