Canvas has long been used as industrial and practical goods, such as truck hoods and railway cargo seats. The toughness is why canvas has been chosen for the material. Canvas bags are also making use of the feature.
Durable Kurashiki canvas and natural leather
"Fabrica" is a series of 6SHiKi (pronounced Roku-shiki), the brand that produces bags made of Kurashiki canvas. While making full use of the traits of the canvas, Fabrica bags bring out the unique coolness when an adult uses it.
FABRICA TOTE M 0002 ash gray is made from Kurashiki canvas, which is woven by a valuable shuttle loom that is no longer produced. Tanned leather is used for the parts. When you start using the bag, you can feel the firmness of the canvas, but it will become softer after one month of use. The canvas is 15.5oz cotton canvas with water-repellent, which is said to be challenging to produce. The material is washed once to create a unique wrinkle. Vegetable-tanned leather is well-matched to canvas fabric.
There are various ideas inside as well. The bag has two inside pockets, which are perfect for holding a cell phone and pass case. Keys could be attached to the metal ring. There is one more pocket inside where you can place books.
The handles are made of leather on the surface and canvas on the back that make it easy to hold. On the bottom of the bag, a piece of durable leather is attached so that you can carry heavy luggage without worry.
Ash gray goes well with brown leather. The contrast between leather and canvas is exquisite.
