Dimensions refined down to the centimeter and a two-tone color scheme.
When I think about what to put in a bag-in-bag, it’s things like a portable charger, a tape recorder, an SSD, and a small notepad and pen. If I just throw them into my bag, they end up scattered everywhere—it’s inconvenient because I can’t find what I need right away, and as an editor, that just doesn’t look professional. If I organize them in a bag-in-bag, I can grab what I need right away, and transferring items between bags—whether from a tote to a backpack or vice versa—is a breeze.
If the size is too big, it takes up too much space, and if it’s too small, it won’t hold everything—which defeats the whole purpose—so I was very particular about the dimensions, down to the centimeter. I had them make three samples, and finally settled on a size of 22 centimeters tall by 20 centimeters wide.
The color scheme features a two-tone design that hasn’t been seen before, either in our inline collection or previous collaborations. The combinations are white and olive drab, and blue and black. Since Dyneema® has a slightly sheer texture, you can see what’s inside—which is a key feature. This time, we’ve created a set consisting of two variations of a bag-in-bag and a business card holder.

Due to the nature of Dyneema®, the fabric shrinks by about 2 centimeters with use, so we determined the final size after repeated trial and error to account for this. The name tags for both the bag-in-bag and the business card holder are sewn onto the inside. The photo shows the final sample; the actual products will each feature the Fuinam H logo stamped on them. Since the position and style of the stamp on each label will vary from piece to piece, we hope you’ll enjoy discovering the unique details on each item.
The business card case measures 10.5 centimeters wide and 10 centimeters tall. The reason for the longer height is that it is designed to hold business cards, which are folded and secured with the included elastic band. The dimensions also take into account some slight shrinkage that may occur over time.
The first installment in the Editor’s ◯◯ Series, created in collaboration with . While it’s marketed as a bag-in-bag and business card holder, how you use it is entirely up to you. It works great as a drawstring pouch for quick outings, and we also recommend using it as a card holder for more than just business cards. It will go on sale on Saturday, April 18, at the “Fuinam Spring Market” held at “PBOX STND” on the 10th floor of Shibuya PARCO. Please come see the actual product and enjoy the “Editor’s Bag-in-Bag and Business Card Holder Set” while imagining how you might use it yourself.
