Kapital’s Sashiko-Reinforced CENTURY Denim is Now Available in Shoulder Bag Form

Reproduction-style Newspaper sling bags just got a hell of a lot tougher with Kapital‘s Century Denim BOOK BAG. What, you’ve never heard of century denim? It’s Kapital Kountry’s sashiko-stitch reinforced denim, AKA some of the hardiest denim we’ve ever encountered, and now you can own a piece of it without having to commit to a whole pair of pants (or jacket).

These are clearly inspired by newspaper shoulder bags of yore, with one roomy pocket to hold dozens of papes (that’s papers in Newsboy lingo), but nowadays could be used to hold all of your high-tech Apple-branded hipster implements. For the Kapital fans out there, now you really can go full-century denim, thanks to the fact that they’re offering this bag in each of their CD fabrics (No.1/2/3/5/7/9). I’m already insanely jealous of the fully-kitted century denim people out there, this bag is the cherry on top of your east-meets-west (to the nth degree) fits.

Details include a screen-printed side panel marking the bag’s specific CD fabric, one-size strap that doubles as a side gusset for the bag, and a Kapital Kountry tag.

Available for $201-270 from Blue in Green.
