Ryokō is a women’s travel collection designed for short business trips. The main feature is a soft, multifunctional Garment Duffle that folds out into a garment bag and includes a detachable handbag and shoe bag. Two pairs of women’s footwear – low half boots and high pumps – complete the collection for easy changing to suit the occasion. The design is based on the principles of modular design, inspired by Japanese aesthetics, and emphasises lightness, practicality and clean craftsmanship. The material solution combines upholstery textiles from Polstrin’s remnants with leather elements, which promotes sustainability. Decorative details such as the Tatewaku pattern and traditional Japanese knotting combine functionality with aesthetic and cultural values associated with the history of travel.
