[HushTug] The first sample of the 2-way mini shoulder bag is now complete!
Hello! I'm Nakajima, the designer of HushTug.
This time we will introduce our newly completed sample bag .
This time we created a " 2-way mini shoulder bag."
In this article, we will provide detailed information on the background of the development, design features, storage capacity, and planned improvements.
Please be sure to watch until the end!
Features of the finished sample
History of production
Until now, HushTug has only offered leather shoulder bags as its shoulder bag line.
We are developing a new bag that is compact and easy to carry to accommodate a wider variety of lifestyles and fashions.
Features of the 2-way mini shoulder bag
From here, we will introduce the features of the 2-way mini shoulder bag.
The shoulder strap of this bag is detachable, making it a " 2-way" bag that can be carried underneath like a handbag.
Of course, if you attach the shoulder strap, you can wear it crossbody or over your shoulder, so you can use it freely depending on your style and the situation .
The exterior also has a zipper on the front and a pocket on the back.
This area is large enough to fit a smartphone or other large items.
Product highlights
Gusseted design
The key feature of this shoulder bag is that it has a sturdy gusset.
Until now, we have received a lot of feedback from customers that their popular "Leather Sacoche" and "Leather Sacoche Medium" models are just big enough to fit a long wallet.
Based on this feedback, we developed a bag with a gusset that can easily fit a long wallet .
Attention to detail in the shoulder section
The shoulder strap is made of thick nylon material .
Made from the same material as the "Flap Shoulder Bag" and "2-way Square Bag," it combines durability and luxury .

The metal fittings are all black , which has less reflection than silver and gives an elegant impression.
In addition, it uses metal fittings called "Kokakin," which allows for a very wide range of length adjustment .
You can wear it short or use it longer when wearing thicker clothes.
You can adjust the length to suit your body type and outfit.
About the interior
The opening is a U-shaped zipper that opens wide.
The design makes it easy to see the contents and take them out.
There is also a stopper on the inside to prevent it from opening too much.
The HushTug logo is placed on the interior.
At this stage, the bag does not have an interior pocket , but we are considering adding one to the front or back in future improvements.
About the storage feel
Next, let's talk about storage.
The back pocket can easily fit larger smartphones such as the iPhone Pro Max.
The main compartment opens wide, so you can fit a long wallet or a water bottle inside.
A 500ml plastic bottle will fit horizontally, while a 350ml bottle will just fit vertically.
We are considering changing this part so that it can be stored vertically in the second sample.
It is also large enough to easily fit a standard round long wallet .
In addition, it has a gusset so you can store thick items, such as pouches .
It is the perfect size when closed, even when you put small items such as a key case or earphones inside.
Regarding improvements
Through this first sample, we were able to identify some areas that we would like to improve.
-
Added interior pocket
-
Improved accessibility of front pocket
-
Changed the back pocket to a zippered one
-
Changed the zipper to open both ways
We plan to improve these in the 2nd and 3rd samples to make them even easier to use.
Wearing occasions
Here we've paired it with a suit, but it also blends naturally with formal attire .
If you wear it diagonally, it sits comfortably around your waist , and if you remove the shoulder strap, you can carry it underneath for a chic look.
The shoulder part can be rolled up and stored inside, so it's great that you can change the way you carry it depending on the situation .
You can also use it as a bag-in-bag by putting it in a larger bag such as a tote bag.
summary
The "2-way mini shoulder bag" introduced this time is still in the first sample stage .
We plan to release the product after finalizing the specifications following the second and third samples.
If you have any suggestions, such as "I would like the interior to be like this" or "I would like a slightly larger size," please let us know using this form .
Based on customer feedback, we will continue to refine our products to be ones that can be used for a long time.
