FUMIKODA Introduces ALEX to go: The Perfect Travel Companion

FUMIKODA, a renowned business bag brand based in Meguro, Tokyo, is proud to announce the official launch of its new tote bag, ALEX to go, scheduled for general release on February 20, 2026. Following the overwhelming support it received on the crowdfunding site Makuake, this innovative bag is designed for business professionals seeking a blend of lightweight convenience and optimal functionality during travel.

Meeting the Needs of Busy Professionals

The ALEX bag, FUMIKODA's best-selling product, has raised the bar by combining style and practicality. Many loyal customers expressed a desire for a feature allowing the bag to be secured to a trolley case, and thus, the ALEX to go was born. This new design retains the exceptional lightness that fans adore, while enhancing usability for commuting, traveling, or corporate excursions.

Key Features of ALEX to go

1. Smart Carry-On Functionality

One of the standout features of the ALEX to go is its smart carry-on function, complete with a back pocket. This design allows users to easily thread the bag onto the handle of their rolling suitcase, preventing slips and sways while on the move. When not in use with a trolley case, the back pocket serves as a convenient storage space for easy access to a smartphone or ID card, promoting efficiency in busy environments.

2. Remarkable Lightness and Durability

Constructed from FUMITEX, a high-quality synthetic leather produced in Japan and traditionally used in luxury vehicle interiors, the ALEX to go achieves remarkable weight reductions without compromising on durability. This water-resistant material not only keeps belongings dry during unexpected rain showers but is also easy to clean—just a simple wipe will have it looking fresh again.

3. Extensive Capacity for Professional Use

With spacious interior designs, the M size accommodates 14-inch laptops, while the L size can comfortably fit 17-inch laptops along with A4 files. The generous opening allows for easy packing and unpacking, and the soft suede-like lining protects electronic devices. Whether for meetings or travel, the ALEX to go is tailor-made for business needs.
