High density hemp backpack (grass dyed)

100% hemp thread is used for the warp and weft. The thread is finer than regular hemp fabric, giving it a denser weave and a finer appearance. Hemp is a strong fiber, but it gradually becomes more comfortable against the skin over time, and you can enjoy the change in texture from hemp to cotton-like. The cool feel that is characteristic of hemp persists even after repeated washing, making it comfortable to wear even in the middle of summer. For more information on the history of hemp cloth, see the article by Shinichiro Yoshida, Director of the Modern Linen Research Institute , and for more information on the differences between hemp, ramie, and flax, see Boeken's article .

This backpack is modeled after the all-purpose bag of the Miao people of China. We aimed to make it functional for modern life. The grab loop is designed to prevent the shoulder strap from slipping off the shoulder. It is also possible to take out the contents while the grab loop is hanging on a wall. In addition, it is designed to eliminate the hassle that occurs when the shoulder strap also has the function of opening and closing the bag.

Handling Instructions

*There are knots and unevenness in the threads that are unique to natural materials. This is because we place importance on texture and use raw materials with uneven fiber lengths, so please consider this as part of the look. Please be careful not to pull on the knots in the threads too hard, as this may cause the threads to break and create holes in the fabric. *Dyed with dyes extracted from plants and insects, there is a natural unevenness. As there is a possibility of color transfer, avoid using it with light-colored items at first, wash with a neutral detergent, and dry in the shade. As it is product dyed, the color and size of each item will vary slightly. (Dark Walnut, Dark Mugwort, Dark Horse Chestnut) *Dyed with natural indigo. The color will become lighter with repeated use. As there is a possibility of color transfer, avoid using with light-colored items at first, wash with neutral detergent, and dry in the shade. As this is product dyed, the color and size of each item may vary slightly. (Dark Natural Indigo)
