An Evisu messenger bag in washed grey denim, its yellow strap sweeping over the flap in the shape of the house seagull.
The Piece
Evisu was founded in Osaka in 1991 by Hidehiko Yamane, and the kamome seagull painted on every back pocket became the label's signature. On this bag the seagull is built into the structure: the broad yellow strap runs down over the flap and curls into the bird's wings, so the logo is also the handle.
The body is soft cotton denim faded to a smoky grey, with a deep gusset and topstitched seams. Inside, a bright yellow lining carries the red Evisu label and a zipped wall pocket.
Measured flat: width 36 cm (14.2 in), height 31 cm (12.2 in), depth 13 cm (5.1 in).
Details
- Label: Evisu, red woven label inside
- Body: Washed grey cotton denim
- Strap: Yellow, shaped into the seagull over the flap
- Lining: Yellow, with zipped wall pocket
- Wear: Across the body or on one shoulder
- Colour: Grey and yellow
- Size: One size
- Measurements: width 36 cm (14.2 in), height 31 cm (12.2 in), depth 13 cm (5.1 in). Every measurement is taken by hand, with the piece laid flat and the tape read by eye, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1–3 cm (0.5–1 in) for the natural give of fabric, handwork and the human hand.
Condition
The denim has an even, soft fade with light creasing. The tip of the seagull flap is torn through to the padding, and the flap fastener is missing, so the bag closes loosely. The lining shows light marks of use.
Condition grade C (worn, torn flap tip, fastener missing) on the Japanese scale; see Japanese condition ranks, explained.
Authenticity & Care
Every piece carries the Japonista authenticity guarantee. Brush off dust, spot clean the denim with a damp cloth, keep the yellow strap away from dye transfer and store stuffed with tissue.
Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand in Japan and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service. Import duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; please ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
