visvim Made Bags So Good, They’re Going on Tour
visvim, pioneer of artisanal workwear, has quietly put forth a new collection of bags, tees, and sandals that are poetic in their functionalfunctionality.
The theme? Toting. But in true visvim fashion, even the act of carrying becomes a meditation on movement, material, and longevity.
The clothes, hats, and shoes are all extremely nice, but the bags are undeniably the main character of visvim's summer collection.
Available from visvim, the bag offering kicks off with the overnight CORDURA 22L Rucksack featuring a rugged nylon body, French lamb leather base, side-entry zip, and hand-painted leather details. There’s also the UT. RIME Tote, crafted from LIMONTA canvas and deerskin suede, more sculpted than sewn.
And on a more approachable tip, the CORDURA 20L Rucksack, a downsized build with the same quiet power.
What sets visvim apart isn’t just the materials, it’s how they’re treated. Founder Hiroki Nakamura famously lets garments get faded by the sun in his backyard. He also works with artisans to hand-dye fabrics with natural indigo.
The result? Stylish pieces that feel alive, bags that age with you, and utility layered with soul.
visvim’s bags are the final form of travel gear, made to be worn, scarred, and passed down.
As part of visvim's rejection of trend, it's doubling down on the IRL experience, which is why visvim is taking these bags on tour throughout Japan during July.
