"TANKER IRON BLUE" special items
In addition to the full "TANKER IRON BLUE" lineup, we are also taking pre-orders for a made-to-order "Storage Cabinet" that uses a strong steel frame created by bending and laser cutting, and uses "TANKER IRON BLUE" three-layer fabric for the cabinet cover. In addition, special items with a "TANKER IRON BLUE" motif will be on sale, including the "Officer Circuit," a set that includes an amulet that can be worn around the neck to carry keys and an ATM purse that can store multiple cards, an original "folding umbrella" commissioned from Maehara Koei Shoten, a long-established umbrella manufacturer representing Japan, and the "GRIZZLY BEAR 2021 ver.", which is made in Japan with all processes from design to sewing carried out domestically.


Storage Cabinet 495,000 yen


The "TANKER" series was born in 1983. This bag features an original three-layer fabric developed with the motif of the US Air Force's MA-1 flight jacket. The three-layer fabric, consisting of nylon twill (surface), polyester cotton (middle layer), and nylon taffeta (back), is extremely light, with a soft bonded feel and eye-catching bright rescue orange backing. This series, packed with the meticulous attention to detail of Yoshida & Co.'s artisans in every step of the process, from cutting to sewing and assembly, has captured the hearts of many users, both men and women. The newly announced "IRON BLUE" is an elegant and subdued original color that takes a deep hue of the traditional Japanese color "iron blue." We hope you'll add this to your fall and winter wardrobe.
