【NEW BRAND】HAAL — A bag that embodies the skill and spirit of artisans, like a lucky charm that accompanies you in your daily life.
A new brand, imbued with quiet strength and beauty, has joined Arzac Kamakura. "HAAL" is a brand created by Japanese designer Mr. Fukada.
The brand name embodies the wish to **"Have An Amulet"**. Fukada's philosophy—that "a bag that you carry with you every day should be a precious presence that protects and supports the person who holds it"—is deeply ingrained in each and every product.
1. Designer Fukada's designs that engage in dialogue with materials
Mr. Fukada is a professional with a deep understanding of leather bag design. The bags he creates have a minimalist look with no unnecessary embellishments, yet possess an extremely logical and beautiful structure that maximizes the flexibility and strength of the materials.
Folding a single piece of material and sewing it into a bag—revisiting the very essence of this act gives rise to a "primitive" aesthetic, which is the true essence of HAAL.
2. The "PRIMITIVE" series, which allows you to enjoy the contrast of materials.
The items we'd like to introduce to you from our selection are:
Two items that allow you to directly experience the texture of the material itself.
■ Primitive Tote Bag "PAPER" (Black / Natural)
This bag, which at first glance looks like leather, is actually made from **"washi orifu"**, a natural fiber that has been used in Japan since ancient times. In addition to the crispness and resilience characteristic of paper fabric, washing gives it a natural softness and a refreshing feel. Its surprising lightness and the way it ages beautifully, developing wrinkles and a rich character with use, are the unique charms of washi paper material.
■ Primitive One Shoulder Bag "DEER" (Black)
This is a one-shoulder bag made from **deerskin**, a material that combines the strength of the wild with delicate beauty. Deerskin, often called the "cashmere of leather," is characterized by its uniquely soft, almost clinging texture and supple drape that conforms to the body. The moment you drape it over your shoulders, you feel a sense of oneness with it, making it a piece that truly stays by its owner's side like a lucky charm.
