A portable Japanese umbrella bag that can be used in two ways: to hang on your arm or to hang on your shoulder.
We have created a very simple Japanese umbrella bag that is less casual than the zipper type.
Store the Japanese umbrella with the top facing up and the handle facing down.
(At the top of the umbrella there is a wooden part called a rokuro, which is necessary for opening and closing the umbrella. If the top is facing down, the wood may get wet in the rain and rot, so Japanese umbrellas must always be placed with the top facing up.)
Simply insert the top of the Japanese umbrella into the bottom of the umbrella bag, then place the bag over the entire umbrella, and finally stow the handle inside so that it fits snugly.
It is the perfect size for a Janome umbrella, but will not fit a Bangasa.
The fabric is thin and finely woven, so the umbrella bag can be folded compactly when carrying it around.
The grey-beige colour goes well with any outfit, whether Japanese or Western.
◆Size: Length approx. 74 cm x width (widest part) approx. 11.5 cm, handle strap length approx. 50 cm
◆Material: 65% polyester, 35% cotton (water-repellent finish)
◆Washable: The water-repellent effect will fade after several washes, so we recommend applying a waterproof spray.
◆Sewing: SU MISURA (Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture)

All Gifu Japanese umbrellas are carefully made one by one by the hands of craftsmen.
It takes over two months to make one Japanese umbrella.
Japanese umbrellas, which are said to be ``open as flowers, closed as bamboo'', are traditional Japanese crafts that are filled with the skill of craftsmen and attention to detail.
Each Japanese umbrella is created through numerous production processes that last over two months.
The thoughtfulness of craftsmen and traditional techniques create delicate beauty.
The framework of a Japanese umbrella is made from a piece of bamboo that is split evenly and assembled so that when the umbrella is folded, it returns to its original shape.
The moment you open it, the colors of the Japanese paper and the delicate threads create a beautiful shadow that surrounds the person holding it.
All of these are the only Japanese umbrellas in the world, created through the painstaking work of craftsmen.
