Why is it that we are attracted to maniacal craftsmanship? Is it because we can sense the craftsman's persistence in the smallest of details, or is it because we sympathize with the earnest attempt to create a niche product? While everyone has their own reasons for being attracted to a product, it is clear that something different from the trends is tugging at our heartstrings.

THE NORTH FACE is pleased to announce the release of an acoustic guitar case created with Moeka Shiotsuka, a sheep writer. The guitar case is a fusion of the technical skills cultivated in the outdoors and Ms. Shiotsuka's passion, resulting in an unprecedented guitar case.

Its greatest feature is its storage capacity for guitars of various sizes. Stability and shock absorption are ensured by the included cushioning material, which can be removed with Velcro tape. There is no need to change cases for different guitars. There is also a large storage space for a tablet, so you can go to gigs or practice with just this case.

The rain cover for sudden rain is also a key point. The packable specification that does not obstruct space can be said to be a detail unique to outdoor brands.
