This type of bag is commonly known as a "steamer bag" and is said to be the origin of canvas bags that could be stored in trunks at a time when hard case trunks were mainstream.

Vasco bags, which change their texture each time you use them, are also recommended as gifts. They are easy to use and can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as going out on holidays, traveling, and business situations, so they are great for people who like leather items, or as a birthday gift or Father's Day gift for someone you care about.

Things that don't lose their luster even over time

Treasure-like bags found in vintage shops attract the hearts of many people. However, it is extremely difficult to find a vintage item that will last for years or even decades. You want a genuine, unique style that will last you a long time. Vasco products will make that wish come true.

The founder of Vasco was originally active as a buyer of used clothing. However, while vintage items are very attractive and popular, there are limits to the number and repairs. In the midst of this, he took the initiative to start making things, wanting to share the charm of vintage with more people. Named after Vasco da Gama, the great navigator who pioneered new continents during the Age of Discovery, this brand has a strong desire for people to use bags with a texture that lasts a long time, and even today, in keeping with its name, the brand continues to evolve with an insatiable spirit of inquiry.

Vasco's craftsmanship, a journey through time

Vasco is a brand that creates bags and leather accessories under the concept of "travel tools." The concept of "travel tools" is based on the idea of ​​"things that remain even after being selected out," and they create heavy-duty items that do not lose their luster even over time.

Their manufacturing is based in Higashi-Nakano, Tokyo. They created an original space by completely renovating an old building with their own hands. They teach us the charm of space and manufacturing being one.

Vasco's craftsmen have solid skills and sense, and they do all the processes from patterning to sewing to finishing by themselves, rather than following an assembly line. This is why you can feel the brand's strong commitment to even the smallest nuances. The cowhide material is finished with a traditional technique called "hill dyeing" to give it a vintage-like, tasteful texture. Hill dyeing is a technique that was born in the Santa Croce region of Italy in the 19th century. Its appeal is its vintage-like color shading and aging, but hand-dyed leather has become extremely rare now that drum dyeing, which aims to achieve uniformity, has become mainstream. There are only a few craftsmen who can hand-dye leather, but it is a technique that vasco has continued to pass down since the brand was founded. After dyeing, the leather is carefully polished using a puff machine, and then sewn, beaten, and finished.
