The ninth collaboration between MARNI and PORTER, "BLOCK COLLECTION," will go on sale from April 25th.
This collaboration is a casual collection that combines two different materials with different textures: polyester twill that has been wrinkled by chloride felting, and supple nylon tape, with Marni's signature color scheme. The lineup of items includes the "3WAY TOTE BAG" (51,000 yen), made from three panels sewn together, each with different details such as pockets and handles; the simple and compact "COMPACT SHOULDER BAG" (33,000 yen), which allows you to easily carry your wallet and cell phone like an inner pocket; the "ZIP WALLET WIDE" (19,000 yen), which can neatly store your passport and pen, and can also be used as a sunglasses case without having to fold bills or receipts; and the "ZIP WALLET" (16,000 yen), a simple bi-fold compact wallet that fits in your pants pocket. Other bags on offer include the unique RUCKSACK (124,000 yen) with a detachable inner pocket that can be used as a standalone mini bag, the large-capacity, flexible 3WAY BONSAC (82,000 yen) with a standalone pocket and a D-ring that can also be used to attach a leather key case, and the 3WAY BRIEF CASE (105,000 yen), one of Porter's classics, which has been given a unique Marni upgrade.
