Material
"Kotan" means something that is plain yet has depth and charm.
This series of leather bags does not make a flashy statement but has a tasteful charm, making them truly worthy of the name Kotan.
I want to dress up in a suit and subtly assert my commitment to style even in a modest way.
This series is extremely popular among businessmen.
Transparent tanned glass leather
It stands there with a unique atmosphere.
Its transparent luster and smooth texture are irresistible.
Not only is it beautiful, but its smooth surface makes it difficult for dirt to adhere or penetrate, which is also an attractive feature.
Polished leather with a natural color
It also serves as an accent in the design.
You can almost hear the craftsmen breathing, feeling the profound skill of their craftsmen.
The glass processing maximizes the beauty of the leather, which has a transparent luster, while eliminating unnecessary elements.
The raw cut design tightens the overall look.
The high quality of this design work, which involves thorough addition and subtraction, is supported by the careful techniques performed by a small number of craftsmen.
The high level of skill can be seen everywhere at Kotan, from the leather craftsmen's glass processing to the bag makers' production of three-dimensional parts.
Brand Story
Planned Complex Gardens means "a world full of complexity."
The sharp and wild design work, along with its profound message, leaves an unforgettable impression deep in your mind.
This is a world of leather items created by the unique designer Motoaki Iura, who is also a Zen monk, and which elegantly express the atmosphere of the times based on the Japanese traditional and cultural awareness that he harbors within himself.
The chemical reaction born from observing the two worlds of bag designers and monks has combined the advanced techniques of experienced bag craftsmen and the 120-year history of Aoki Bags.
It has fascinated people throughout the ages.
