It’s a beautiful day!

Let’s go out with your bags and pouches.

Tools & Toys Report 2023 May

It’s that time of the year when we have more opportunities to go outside. The outing could be even more fun if you use different bags for different occasions and moods, such as “the bag for a short walk,” “the one for when I have a lot to carry,” or “the one to travel light.”

“Tools & Toys,” the shop on the Hobonichi Techo official website, has a wide variety of bags and pouches in different designs, sizes and materials! We hope you will find bags and pouches that fit your outing mood.

The small size makes it even cuter Mini Tote Bag

A small-size tote bag comes in handy for small outings when all you need to have with you is a techo and a few little things.
Techo-time at a coffee shop

minä perhonen x HobonichiTote Bag - anemone (Beige)

Opening your techo in a coffee shop in the aroma of coffee - The tote bag made from minä perhonen’s “anemone” textile will add color to your techo-time. There is lace at the four corners of each flower, and the light textile makes the bag perfect for spring walks.
This is how I’d use it! Annen

I think it is a great bag to use when going out to a nearby park on a warm day. I can have my techo, a paperback book that I’m reading, a handkerchief, and snacks to have when I get a little hungry. Bringing insect repellent would also be a good idea. I’d like to have it with me when I read a book in the park and write down in my techo how I enjoyed the book.

This is how I’d use it! Mori

I tried packing all the things I would need for an overnight trip since the bag seems large enough to pack the things I would need. Change of clothes, items for taking a bath, cosmetics, a handkerchief… and of course, my techo would all fit in it. The bag is light and the strap is long enough to hang from my shoulder, so I think it would be easy to carry.

A bag to carry your things at the workplace

Weeks Casemokku

It would also be convenient to carry stationery in the Mokku when you move around the workplace with your computer. You can avoid forgetting anything by always keeping your important necessities in it.
This is how I’d use it! Iwasawa

I often use tote bags on my days off, but it tends to get messy inside… Using the Mokku inside a larger bag would help me keep the little things from getting scattered around. It has more pockets than I thought it would, so it would be easy for me to locate items, such as my smartphone in the front clear pocket and wet wipes in the mesh pocket on the back. It is also nice that I can use Mokku as a second bag when I have more luggage.
