I'm selling this item because I've only used it about 4 or 5 times after purchasing it a year and a half ago, and I haven't had a chance to use it since. The main body uses full vegetable tanned leather (nume leather) from Tochigi Leather Co., Ltd., founded in 1937, which is considered to have the best technology in Japan. They are known worldwide as a specialized tanner using full vegetable tanning in pit vats, a traditional method. The genuine nume leather, tanned slowly with powdered tannin extracted from the bark of mimosa trees from South America, is a wild and highly refined leather created by skillfully utilizing the techniques of artisans. While the bono and rubono raw hides used in SLOW's standard series are from North America, this series uses carefully selected Japanese cowhide. Compared to North American hides, the grain surface is thinner, and by not applying an oil finish, it combines suppleness and lightness. This leather embodies "Made in Japan." Inspired by the bags used to store shotguns during hunting, this is a cartridge shoulder bag. Since hunting was a classic pastime for the nobility at the time, the metal fittings are finished in silver to express an elegant and clean image. The base of the shoulder strap is attached diagonally so that it fits snugly against the body when worn across the chest, creating a sense of unity between the body and the bag, and making it feel even lighter.
