For commuting bags

It is sometimes described that clothes that fit the body are "comfortable enough to forget to wear", but the same thing is not often said about bags worn. It may be because it is often selected by design, functionality, storage capacity, etc. However, when I actually started using the bag, if the feeling when hung on the shoulder and the feeling when holding it in my hand did not fit well, the turn became somewhat less, and I was gradually moved into the back of the closet It's often the case. What is required of a bag used every day can be said to be "easy to hold", "to choose a style", and "balanced appearance when holding".

"REN Len" started from 2005 / SS. The line “FUKURO FUKURO”, which is very popular in the REN collection, focuses on shapes and sizes so that the texture of the material can be used as it is, focusing on simple simple bags. This bag uses original leather "TOILE". One of the features is that it is lightly finished without lining.

Compact bag that comes in many times

This "Day Shopper" was created in the image of a department store shopper (paper bag). The bottom core is inserted so that the bottom does not loosen easily when you put things in, and the hook is attached above the horizontal gusset so that you can adjust the width according to the amount of luggage. The inside has both inside and outside pockets, so it is useful for storing small items that are frequently taken out and used. A4 size magazines and files should be roughly inserted vertically, with a tumbler or a lunch box, or a sub bag.

Two colors are available: PLAZA TAUPE and PALE GRAY. The beige PLAZA TAUPE looks gentle and the gray PALE GRAY looks great in cool mode. PALE GRAY is a color reminiscent of cool silver, so it is perfect for hot weather. It is cool throughout spring and summer, and brighter in autumn and winter when dark colors increase.

Pigskin, one of the most commonly used materials in REN's collection, is one of Japan's proud leathers. Overseas, the characteristics of pigskin have been firmly evaluated and are used for innerwear of high-brand bags and shoes. REN focuses on the pigskin and develops original leather with an atmosphere that can be used on the surface of products.

"TOILE" is a REN original pigskin that is made with attention to moderate hardness and flat look like canvas. In order to produce a uniform and deep color, the leather floor is layered over and over to give a leather-like texture.
Processing begins with the creation of a groundwork that suppresses fluffing on the floor surface, and then the fluff is hand-adjusted one by one by a skilled craftsman, so that the paint is firmly applied, and the fluff is adjusted with a special sticky glue and dried. . This process takes a whole day. This time, we will add white paint to the finished substrate over time. The paint is applied manually, dried and ironed one by one with a large machine to fix the colors. This work can only be done once a day, so we will repeat the same schedule over several days and add color. And REN original TOILE leather completed over about one month. From here, the bag goes through a further process.
The characteristics of this leather are that the material itself is lightweight, the surface density is high and the surface is resistant to friction and water repellency.
