Discover the Azumabukuro Bags from Hokusai Graphic

Wagokoro, a company dedicated to bringing Japanese culture to the world, is launching a unique and stylish bag called the Azumabukuro. This versatile item merges the traditional Japanese furoshiki culture with the practicality of Western bags. Starting from August 15, the Azumabukuro will be available at Hokusai Graphic stores and on their e-commerce site, The Ichi.

A Blend of Tradition and Modernity

The Azumabukuro bags are designed with bold, modern patterns that reflect traditional Japanese aesthetics. They are made from the same water-resistant material as the fabric used for umbrellas, ensuring that your belongings stay safe from sudden rain showers.
