INCEPTION / HORSE HIDE NEWSPAPER BAG
INCEPTION / Horsehide
Based on a vintage newspaper bag
As the name suggests, a newspaper bag is a bag that is said to have been used by American boys who delivered newspapers around the 1900s.
It is wide enough to hold a newspaper, and the belt is designed to be thick to withstand the load.
While many items are made from canvas, this one is made from horsehide leather.
This leather is made to fit the body better and be easier to handle than standard horsehide. It is also lightweight and can be used for a wide range of purposes, from everyday use to short trips.
HORSE HIDE
In the Horsehide Collection, the natural look that can be seen within the beautiful luster is reminiscent of a horse galloping across a vast field.
The clever aging process is very cool and fun. It's a masterpiece that lets you feel the magnificent flow of time and its breath.
Horsehide leather refers to leather made from the torso of an adult horse.
Originally, we use base materials with carefully selected fabric content and size for clothing applications such as flight jackets.
A light kneading process in the final process gives it an indescribable soft feel and texture.
*This leather is beaten on a drum to give it a moderate amount of grain and suppleness, making it easier to fit the body than standard horsehide.
The "brown core" creates a unique contrast
As it is used, the pigment on the surface will gradually peel off due to rubbing, revealing the base material inside. Since the base material is dyed mocha all the way to the core, it has a very rugged appearance.
This condition is called "brown core" and is familiar to many vintage enthusiasts.
Point
Carefully crafted stitching
The leather continues seamlessly in an L-shape from the side to the bottom.
The lack of seams means that a large amount of leather is used luxuriously.
The sides and bottom areas, which are subject to stress, are reinforced with triple stitching.
This is not sewn in one go with three needles, but rather run through the sewing machine three times.
"I know it's pretty inefficient, but it creates a cool atmosphere."
The maker's attention to detail is evident in every detail.
For everyday use and travel
It can store not only your essentials but also bulky items such as jackets and cameras. The generous gusset is very reliable.
The inside of the main compartment has a 24cm zip pocket and a leather brand tag, and an open pocket on the opposite side.

| Material characteristics | - The horsehide is made from raw hides sourced in Europe and is vegetable tanned to complete the base. Originally, we use base materials with carefully selected fabric content and size for clothing applications such as flight jackets. During the dyeing process, the fabric is dyed mocha not only on the surface but also to the core, and the surface is given a pigment finish as a final finishing touch. The leather is finished to have a stable color and a glossy texture, and in the final process it is lightly kneaded to give it an indescribable soft feel to the touch. It is also lightweight. ・Horsebutt is a rare, high-fiber-density leather from the buttocks of a horse. In the bag series, it is used on the belt joints. Here, we use a base that could not be completed as cordovan, and finish it to give it the unique feel of horse leather and natural wrinkles on the surface that are not found in cow leather. Similarly, we select the thickest horse butt hides possible from Europe and tan them with vegetable tannins. The dyeing process is intentionally left in its original dye form, so that the leather can be enjoyed as it ages with use. |
