Although it may look like it's sewn by a machine, in reality, everything is hand-sewn, just like the saddles of high-end Hermès equestrian equipment. Since the parts of a saddle that rub against the legs tend to cause the thread to break, hand-sewing allows the thread to be strongly sewn into the leather, thus preventing thread breakage due to friction, and also has the advantage of being repairable if damaged. Therefore, Mr. Mikuni of LEFTY'S is particular about everything being hand-sewn. Explanation by Mr. Mikuni of LEFTY'S Briefcase Clasp Type The main body, as well as the gusset and handle, are all made by LEFTY'S. The main features of this briefcase are the gusset, clasp, and handle. Clasp: A dedicated aluminum clasp. While aluminum has the advantage of being lightweight, it also has the disadvantage of significantly reduced strength when bent. The ones used by LEFTY'S are processed by a specialized company, so the shape can be formed while maintaining the unique strength of aluminum. Accordion Gusset: The gusset is an accordion (bellows) type. This expands the capacity range. Handle: A pair of square handles. This type has a wooden core inside, so it doesn't lose its shape and has no unnecessary bending.
