This compact and lightweight bag can be used in all seasons. I bought it at the museum shop of the National Art Center, Tokyo. I think it would also be lovely as a sub-bag for a kimono. It has two handles and a design with gathers all over. Utilizing the Japanese traditional technique of "shibori dyeing," the size of the bag expands and contracts depending on the contents. When shrunk, it's about the size of both hands! When you put things in it, it transforms into a tote bag large enough to easily fit an A4 magazine. It's recommended as a bag that you can easily carry regardless of the season, Japanese clothing, or Western clothing. It's also recommended as an eco-bag to keep in your bag or as a spare sub-bag. Flat: Approximately 14cm x 17cm x 6cm Expanded: Approximately 45cm x 40cm x 20cm
