Made in Japan by Mate Mono.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Tekateka” is the Japanese word for a glossy shine, and that is the first thing you notice. The Tekateka Tote is made from shantung, a fabric originally woven for dresses, coated with a film so it gleams like patent synthetic leather; Komatsu Matere gave surplus fashion fabric a new use, and the weave still shows through the shine. Double-raschel mesh is built into the body and handles, so the bag holds a soft, plump shape and the thick handles cushion the weight. Inside, a drawstring closes the opening and a large pocket holds your wallet and phone. It fits A4 documents and a laptop: about 11.42″ high, 15.75″ wide and 7.87″ deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mate Mono by Komatsu Matere (Ishikawa, Japan)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tekateka Tote Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large tote with internal drawstring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColors:\u003c\/strong\u003e White, Charcoal, Mocha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.42″ H × 15.75″ W × 7.87″ D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19.69″ long, 2.36″ wide, padded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrawstring:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.32″\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits A4 documents and a laptop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePocket:\u003c\/strong\u003e One large inner pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shantung dress fabric with a glossy film (synthetic leather), double-raschel mesh built into body and handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem numbers (MPN):\u003c\/strong\u003e MM-Tekatote-WH (White), MM-Tekatote-CH (Charcoal), MM-Tekatote-MC (Mocha)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlossy film-coated shantung with the weave showing through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded body and thick 2.36″-wide handles (double-raschel mesh)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal drawstring closure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge inner pocket for wallet and phone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits A4 files and a laptop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorkdays, commuting and weekend errands: one bag for a laptop, a notebook, a water bottle and the small things.

Mate Mono (mate-mono) is the product brand of Komatsu Matere, the textile dyeing and finishing company founded in Ishikawa, Japan, in 1943. Its idea is to waste as little material as possible: some bags are made from surplus or offcut industrial fabrics, others are knitted in one piece so nothing is cut away, and each design leans on the company’s own dyeing and finishing know-how.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuy once: durability and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon’t leave wet items in the bag for long, as color can transfer.
