A New Addition to Tsuchiya Kaban

On June 4, 2026, Tsuchiya Kaban, the renowned leather brand based in Adachi, Tokyo, will introduce a new staple color, 'Dark Brown,' for its Vaino series—a collection designed for urban living. This sophisticated backpack harmoniously blends practicality and aesthetics, making transitions from business meetings to casual outings seamless.

Practical Elegance for Everyday Use

The Vaino series is crafted with waterproof leather, allowing users to embrace the refined quality of leather without worrying about the weather. Leveraging the craftsmanship associated with their roots in making randoseru (Japanese school bags), the Vaino backpacks use moisture-wicking soft cowhide and cushioning materials on the back for comfort, providing a pleasant carrying experience even for extended periods.

The Allure of the New Dark Brown Hue

The 'Dark Brown' color features rich tones reminiscent of high-quality dark chocolate, infused with sophistication that integrates seamlessly into any business attire. It offers not just a classic look but also a quiet strength and modernity, elevating one's professional style. The backpack incorporates black silver hardware and a unified black interior for a mature and polished appearance, with the soft cowhide back featuring colors that blend with the exterior.

Waterproof Leather for All Weather

The primary material of the backpack boasts 'waterproof fine leather,' which maintains a luxurious texture while providing excellent water resistance. This feature preserves the supple and deep aesthetic qualities of conventional leather while ensuring the interior remains protected against moisture, making it ideal for sudden rain or accidental spills without compromising practicality and functional beauty.
