If you would like gift wrapping, please purchase the [GIFT BOX M].


The tote bag series affectionately known as the “Lunch Bag” has kept the same shape since the brand’s beginning. REN is synonymous with simple, no-frills design, and the Lunch Bag is the very symbol of that philosophy. Available in two sizes, S and M, the M size is practical for everyday use or as a work bag, as it can hold A4-sized documents. The slim handles are designed long enough to rest comfortably on the shoulder.

 

▲What Fits Inside: A4 Notebook, 500ml Bottle, Long Wallet, Smartphone, Pouch, Planner


The original pigskin HALLIE used for this bag is soft enough to be folded or rolled. When not in use, it can be stored flat. This makes it a leather bag you can use with ease, without hesitation, despite being genuine leather. The leather itself is made lightweight, and the bag maintains this lightness by minimizing the use of hardware, lining, and fasteners.




The more you use it, the more you can enjoy the leather’s natural changes in character. How it ages will vary depending on your usage and frequency. Areas that are often touched will more easily absorb oils and show marks, but these darkening and stains gradually blend in as the surface develops a richer sheen. We recommend enjoying these changes as part of the leather’s character, rather than worrying too much about them.

HALLIE

This is REN's original pigskin. Pig skin is a material that is relatively prone to scratches and uneven coloring, and was commonly used as a backing material. However, we saw its potential in its light weight, high density, durability despite its thinness, breathability, and fabric-like suppleness. By studying the differences in density and texture of different parts of the hides, as well as the dyes used, and by developing a method that wastes as little raw hides as possible, the appeal of this material is now reaching many people.

[ Notes on Product Purchases ]
Because it is natural leather, REN makes bags without discarding the scratches, grains, and uneven coloring that are part of the leather's character. Scratches do not disappear, but the more you use the leather, the more the surface of the leather becomes shiny and the more the scratches and color irregularities become familiar.

[ About color migration and color fading]

If worn with denim, indigo-dyed or cotton clothing, the color of the clothing may transfer to the leather due to friction. Also, if the bag gets wet due to rain, sweat, or friction, the color of the leather may transfer to your clothing. Please be careful when matching the bag with bright clothing.

 

[ Storage Method ]

If not used for a long period of time, store in a well-ventilated place. Avoid storing in a humid place as it may cause mold and leather deterioration.
