The body is made of full vegetable-tanned leather produced by Tochigi Leather Co., Ltd., founded in 1937 and regarded as one of the finest tanneries in Japan. The company is known worldwide as a specialist in full vegetable tanning in pit tanks, a time-honored traditional method. Tanned slowly with powdered tannins extracted from the bark of South American mimosa, this pure vegetable-tanned leather is shaped by masterful craftsmanship into a rugged yet highly refined material. The leather used by SLOW is made to order for SLOW by Tochigi Leather Co., Ltd., and combines firm body with a soft hand. Inspired by the military gas mask bag and reinterpreted for today, it has been refined into a sophisticated shoulder bag in true SLOW style. The snap-closure opening opens wide, and the generous gusset offers more capacity than its appearance suggests. Military in spirit, it also pairs easily with modern looks.
