Textile by kvadrat × nendo / ruck-tote Gray / 855101

This item is a standard nendo ruck-tote made from deadstock kvadrat fabric.

The "ruck-tote" is a bag that combines a backpack and a tote.

A tote bag has handles and an opening at the top, making it easy to check its contents and put things in and out while it's on your shoulder. On the other hand, a backpack has handles on the side, keeping it close to your body, and with the cushioning and adjustable length of the straps, it's designed to be comfortable and less tiring. We wanted to combine the convenience of both, so we designed a bag that feels like a backpack when you're on the move, yet allows for smooth access to your belongings like a tote.

Color: Gray

Size: W46×H51×D5cm　Total shoulder length: 105cm
Material: Wool x Nylon
