Their Transfer Ainu print bag does the same. The Ainu pattern is also of historical Japanese origin. It’s charcaterised by intricate, stylised patterns which swirl around one another. The embroidered or appliqué shapes were believed to have the power to ward off evil. This swirling pattern is used on the Transfer Ainu print snufkin bag.
Kapital also created a cross-body bag in boro print, a design technique which appears across their collections. Boro is the art of patching together different pieces of material, traditionally as a way of making clothes last longer. For their boro print bag, Kapital used the process as their inspiration, creating a fabric covered with inky squares. The Mountain Research Tote Pax bad also follows their signature style. The piece is brandished with a provocative statement - ‘for anarchists mountaineers saunter biker + punks’. It is a bag to go into battle with. The piece is made from 100%, hard-wearing nylon.Finally, we stock the Flight Pack from Atelier de L’Armée. Similarly to the Mountain Research piece, this bag embodies the quality, style, and functionality of pieces made for the army. It is also made from nylon and will withstand hard wear. A padded back panel makes it comfortable on the body. It is the perfect blend of functionality, design, and comfort.
