White Synthetic Leather Tote Bag (Clarino)

I wanted to make a very simple bag, so I decided on this design. It’s the kind of tote you see everywhere, and I used the BAGGYPORT hand-carry bag KBS-380 as a reference. (People who carry that bag always seem stylish to me — I’ve even seen someone using it at the city library.)

As for improvements… to be honest, I’m not very satisfied with any part of it. With a design that relies so much on material texture, the leather itself needs to have real charm — and above all, I need to feel affection for what I create. That sounds simple, but it’s actually very difficult. While I’m making something, I feel satisfied… but as I continue working, and even after finishing, new points for improvement keep appearing. The ideas and the emotions at the beginning are always the most beautiful.

But please don’t misunderstand — it’s because failures exist that new successful works can be born.
