Marineday Roots Bucket Shoulder Bag (Beige)

€185.00

Roots is a beautifully-crafted cotton canvas and 66nylon bucket-shaped shoulder bag from Kobe, Japan with lots of storage options.

As expected from Marineday, the bag looks deceptively simple on the outside, but offers clever details, lots of pockets and an extra leather handle on the inside.

Designer Yuji Hayashi has put a lot of thought into Roots. The bag's shoulder strap, main shell and beautiful white with yellow piping inner lining are made of very high quality canvas and the inner handle is genuine leather. The bottom of the bag is covered in a lightweight but rugged 66Nylon (similar to Cordura), which protects it from the elements and wear and adds some rigidity to maintain the bag's bucket shape.

Characteristics:

Inner canvas lining

2 large external pockets

4 internal pockets

Cotton canvas & 66nylon

Simple one-button metal pressure closure for easy opening and closing.

2 way bag: can be carried by the shoulder strap on the shoulder or by the internal leather handle. This extra leather handle inside the bag can be used to carry it by hand or on the wrist.

Nylon bottom provides protection and maintains shape.

The Superior Labor Smart Clutch Bag Canvas

€169.00

The nylon-lined interior of the Clutch is lightly padded to protect the contents (the bag will fit an iPad mini, for example) and completed by a secure inner zipped pocket for your smaller items.

The zipper runs 2/3 around the edge of the bag to allow easier access to the contents.

You can carry the bag by the handle or cradled on your arm, held by the leather bottom under the nylon handle.

Superior Labor x Nomado Store Higonokami & Pen Case

€135.00

In Stock

The Superior Labor x Nomado Store Higonokami & Pen Case is the perfect embodiment of our philosophy and of TSL's.

Handmade in Superior Labor's workshop near Okayama, the Case is the result of a joint creative exercise. Designed to be portable and practical, it is fitted with a classic Superior Labor Brass Money Clip on the back to allow you to clip it to your inside pocket, Traveler's Notebook, etc.

We decided to include a beautiful Mujun Fuji Higonokami knife with every case. Standard Higonokami knives can be pretty “pedestrian”, cosmetically-speaking. The Mujun Fuji knife is handmade by craftsmen in the traditional way but with seriously upgraded looks.

'Fuji Knife' is a multipurpose foldable knife, which is both functional and beautiful; when folded, the engraved handle and blade form a drawing of Mt. Fuji from a famous view in Miho peninsula. The end of the solid brass handle is a bottle opener. The high quality double-edged blade and the brass handle ensure that you will get years of use out of the knife.

The knife is perfect for sharpening pencils, craft, gardening and just about any other cutting need you may have on a daily basis.

TSL used the finest Japanese leather from the Tochigi tannery for this project, it is smooth and supple but robust and will last for years. The leather is undyed and will darken progressively to a cognac colour.

Perfect for use on your Traveler's Notebook.

The brass clip and popper are untreated and will acquire a beautiful patina with time.

Read our blog article on the story of this project for more information!

This set includes both the case and the Higonokami knife!

Product care (knife):

- cleaning: mild detergent and water, wipe immediately after rinsing

Peg and Awl The Finch Satchel - Slate

€275.00

A rugged but compact satchel (perfectly sized in our opinion).

Constructed with durable waxed canvas and finished with brown vegetable tanned leather, the Finch Satchel is a blank slate waiting to be marked with the adventures and stories of use. It is the last messenger bag you will need. Throw it across your body and go. The Finch's simple shape will hold most of your daily needs and includes two interior pockets for organizing the little things like pens and pencils, lip balm, keys, wallet, &c. Two additional small pockets are situated on the outside for easy access to additional small needs. The flap covers the satchel for daily use, but for those city dwellers, travelers and those others wanting some more security, the satchel closes with a detachable vintage zipper that tucks in neatly when undesired.

Waxed canvas originated in the sailing industry in Scotland in the 1920s and became widely used in sportswear and apparel because of its waterproofing abilities and superb durability.

Superior Labor x Nomado Store Engineer Shoulder Bag Compact - NOMADO Store

Superior Labor x Nomado Store Engineer Shoulder Bag Compact (4 colours)

€290.00

Colour

Quantity

Probably the most iconic Superior Labor product, the Engineer Shoulder Bag mixes a strong heritage vibe with a timeless aesthetic.

This Compact edition bag is a scaled down version of the classic full-sized bag, which we designed with The Superior Labor following numerous customer requests for a smaller Engineer Bag. The Compact is sized as a generous but highly portable handbag.

We also decided to improve the storage options offered by the standard Engineer Bag. The Compact is fitted with the usual double inside pocket for your smartphone, wallet and other sundries, but we added a full height pocket, which is large enough for a 12 inch MacBook, regular size Traveler's Notebook and more. We also added pen loops to the outside of the large pocket. The main compartment offer lots of space for larger items. The external leather pocket is great for tickets or a notebook and is smaller than the standard one.

The shoulder strap is thinner than the standard one, the latter being somewhat bulky.

Every Compact Engineer Bag is fitted with a solid brass "Lucky Turtle" logo badge, which is made for us by The Superior Labor in Japan.

These bags are made from the finest Kurashiki canvas- only 150 feet can be woven on shuttle looms per day, raw brass hardware - produced in a traditional casting factory in downtown Tokyo and vegetable – tanned Japanese leather – slowly and carefully tanned with mimosa extract. The paint stripe and stencil are applied by hand in the Superior Labor workshop, a beautifully restored old schoolhouse.

The robust canvas will become supple with use, the natural leather will darken and take on its own patina.

The bag closes with a brass zipper which can be tucked back into the bag when open for easy access.

Note on pockets: pockets are in a contrasting colour, back canvas with red pockets, khaki & beige canvas with navy pockets.

Order information: We currently have 4 colour combinations in stock, please contact us if you require another colour.

SIZE (approx. L42cm × H28cm × W15cm)

Superior Labor x Nomado Store Paint Shoulder Bag Large - NOMADO Store

Superior Labor x Nomado Store Paint Shoulder Bag Large (4 colours)

€225.00

Colour

Quantity

We've always had a soft spot for the popular Small Paint Bag, one of our bestselling TSL items. Beautifully-made and cute-looking, it's only disadvantage is it's inherent compactness.

We also felt that there was a need for a Unisex messenger bag or satchel in the Superior Labor range. Putting these 2 concepts together during a design session in Okayama last year at TSL HQ, we also decided to upgrade the internals.

This Paint Shoulder Bag Large is a scaled up version of the classic Small Paint bag. The Compact is sized for portability but is large enough to offer convenient storage.

We decided to improve the storage options offered by the standard Small Bag. The Large is fitted with the usual double inside pocket for your smartphone, wallet and other sundries, but we added a full height pocket, which is large enough for a 12 inch MacBook, regular size Traveler's Notebook and more. We also added pen loops to the outside of the large pocket. The main compartment offers lots of space for larger items. Use a Croots medium camera insert to transform it into a beautiful camera bag.

Every Paint Bag Large is fitted with a solid brass "Lucky Turtle" logo badge, which is made for us by The Superior Labor in Japan and is discreetly hidden under the top flap.

These bags are made from the finest Kurashiki canvas- only 150 feet can be woven on shuttle looms per day, raw brass hardware - produced in a traditional casting factory in downtown Tokyo and vegetable – tanned Japanese leather – slowly and carefully tanned with mimosa extract. The paint stripe is applied by hand in the Superior Labor workshop, a beautifully restored old schoolhouse.

The robust canvas will become supple with use, the natural leather will darken and take on its own patina.

Note on pockets: with the exception of the black canvas/tan paint bag, pockets are in a contrasting colour, back canvas with red pockets, khaki & beige canvas with navy pockets.

Order information: We currently have 4 colour combinations in stock, please contact us if you require another colour.

The Paint Bag Large is also available with a leather bottom or in full leather (contact us for more information). For practical reasons, these leather versions do not include the full height pocket.

.Urukust STO-01 Organizer (Oak)

€254.00

The .Urukust STO-01 Organizer is the kind of product that makes the months we spend searching for new brands and products more than worth it. Truly exceptionally well made and very cleverly designed, this leather organiser will give you many satisfying years of use and enjoyment.

Made from a single piece of leather, the seams of this organizer are invisible from outside. It can neatly hold an iPad mini, an A5-sized notebook or diary, a smartphone, pens and cards. The interior divider is removable.

Materials:

Steer oiled leather
This leather is tanned using vegetable tannins, a method rarely used in Japan. .URUKUST original leather is produced after extensive discussions with tanners. Japanese raw hides are used, giving it the perfect elasticity and smoothness. Treated with light oils, it is lightweight yet gives off an elegant luster with use.

Vachetta leather
The leather is hand-processed using traditional methods that have been passed down in Tuscany, Italy, for generations. The cowhide is tanned with vegetable tannins and treated with vegetable oils. Its high fiber density offers a soft and smooth texture. It melts against your hands and the luster increases with use.

Specifications:

Body：Steer oiled leather
Belt：Vachetta leather
Size：h22.5 x w16.5 x d3cm
One large outside pocket (rear)
3 pen holders
1 mobile phone pocket
1 A5-size internal pocket
Card slots
Closure: folding cover
Handmade in Japan
This item qualifies for worldwide free shipping.

About .Urukust leather:
All of their leather is natural. As a result, it has varying textures and may have slight blemishes, unevenness of color, or wrinkles.

Product Care:
All leather used in their products is processed without pigments in order to feature the genuine leather's character, without hiding natural blemishes and color variation.
Please note that it tends to stain with water or sweat and may discolor. When it comes into contact with water, wipe it off with a dry, soft cloth immediately and air dry. When a water stain lingers, wet a soft cloth, wring out excess moisture, and gently wipe around the stain to make it less noticeable.
Minor scratches will become unnoticeable with use. You can apply an appropriate amount of leather cream if you like. It's not necessary to apply excessive oil since our leather already contains plenty. Only when the surface looks dry, apply leather cream. Wiping it off with a dry, soft cloth is sufficient as daily maintenance.
