Muromachi Gofukuro — One-of-a-Kind Bags Handmade in Kyoto from Upcycled Kimono Fabrics

Muromachi Gofukuro is a special collection of bags crafted in Kyoto using carefully selected vintage kimono fabrics. Each piece is handmade from start to finish — fabric sourcing, cutting, and sewing — by artisans in Kyoto who specialize in traditional Japanese textiles.

The outer materials are deadstock vintage kimono textiles from the 1970s to early 2000s, originally found in storehouses, ateliers, or old textile shops. These fabrics include classics such as Ōshima-tsumugi, Yūki-tsumugi, Kihachijō-tsumugi, and other kimono, obi, yukata, and haori textiles.

Each bag is completely one-of-a-kind, designed with respect for the original fabric’s beauty and history.
