Alaïa, Phoebe Philo, Jil Sander, Coach and SUNA. Five bags, from a creator's perspective.

People who usually carry light loads have their own unique aesthetic regarding their belongings.

They don't carry unnecessary things. They only carry what's essential. This isn't just a habit; it's a choice. To curate your belongings means you know what you truly need.

We designed SUNA for such individuals. It can be carried in 3 ways, and comfortably fits a long wallet and smartphone. Yet, it's not bulky. This "just right" balance is the intention behind its design.

This time, I'll honestly discuss SUNA's position by comparing it with four other bags that fit the same context of "the only bag you need on a light-carry day."

01 Alaïa Le Teckel Small

Sculptural beauty.

 

The bag's name, Le Teckel, comes from the French word for dachshund. The long, low body of that dog is directly translated into the bag's shape. It's a form born from Alaïa's characteristic deep interest in the body.

Made of 100% goatskin, Italy. The tubular handle, decorative tie, double zipper, and removable small mirror inside. Every detail reflects the density of this maison.

The size is H9×W27×D8cm. Since the height is low at 9cm, the shape of items that can fit is limited. The actual capacity is not significantly different from SUNA, which has a depth of 4cm. It's a bag that makes you choose your belongings. And that's also the personality of this bag.

02 Phoebe Philo Small Gig Bag

Unassuming. Phoebe's signature three-layer structure.

 Phoebe Philo's eponymous brand, launched in 2023, garnered attention from fashion insiders worldwide immediately upon its debut. The aesthetic she cultivated at Céline—stripping away embellishments and letting materials and structure speak for themselves—is evident in this Small Gig Bag.

The blind embossed logo is only noticeable to the touch. Three internal compartments neatly organize a few belongings. 100% calf leather, suede lining. Its weight of approximately 500g is a testament to its substantial quality for its size.

A quiet presence that only those who know will appreciate. This bag offers reasons for fashion lovers who meticulously choose their belongings.

 

03 Jil Sander Cannolo Small

The purity of a cylindrical choice.

Named after the traditional Sicilian pastry "cannolo," this is a popular masterpiece by the Meier couple, known for its high-quality calf leather and refined curved beauty.

The minimalism of Jil Sander, created by Lucie and Luke Meier, means eliminating anything unnecessary. Embossed logo, magnetic button, 100% calf leather, made in Italy. Weighing approximately 380g, it's easy to handle and comes with an adjustable strap for both hand and shoulder carrying.

04 Coach Waverly Bag

NY elegance, everyday.

 Coach's 1987 silhouette, "Waverly," has been reinterpreted with modern minimalism. Compact New York sophistication. Not overstated, but not neglecting quality.

Natural grain leather, with three straps included: chain strap, short strap, and long strap. A zipper closure securely protects your belongings. Coach's honesty lies in its design and price range suitable for everyday use.

It's effortlessly stylish and polished for everyday use. It's a reliable choice for days when you carry light. 

05 otnek&ebanat SUNA Small

A new icon with 3-way functionality.

 

SUNA can be used as a clutch, tote, or shoulder bag in 3 ways. Typically worn over the shoulder, it transforms into a clutch by tucking in the handle, or can be worn diagonally with an attached shoulder strap.

This bag is for those who find a long wallet, smartphone, handkerchief, and lipstick to be enough. It has a 3-layer structure inside, with a zippered pocket in the middle for valuables and important items, and magnetic free pockets on both sides for items you frequently access. It allows you to neatly organize a small amount of belongings.

Simply transforming it into a clutch changes its entire look. From a casual shoulder bag to an elegant clutch. You can take it directly to sudden formal occasions. For those who carry light, there's no need to switch bags.

The material is Ultrasuede®. The tuck motif, inspired by the "Fukura Suzume" obi knot style for furisode kimonos, is an icon of otnek&ebanat inherited from GOULT.

In closing

Curating your belongings means knowing your life.

Alaïa with sculptural forms. Phoebe Philo with a quiet presence. Jil Sander with structural purity. Coach with everyday elegance. Each offers a unique answer to the question of "carrying less, beautifully."

We have expressed this with Ultrasuede® and a 3-WAY design, in the silhouette of a puffed sparrow. Not large capacity. But that is the essence of SUNA.
