Why is it rated so highly?

As mentioned above, the secret lies in its "affordable price."

Why are famous brand bags so expensive?

A leather bag from a famous brand that everyone knows.

Do you know why it's so expensive?

In these stories, the topic that often comes up is "Famous brands are expensive because of the brand fees." That's it.

For example, if a product is designed by a famous designer, it's only natural that the price will be accordingly.

Another reason is that they are popular and rare, which is why they are so expensive.

However, such brands are only a minority, and there is a system in place that makes prices higher even if they are not.

That "Intermediate costs of distribution" is.

For example, let's follow the journey of a bag from the time it is produced in a factory until it reaches the store where you buy it.

  • trading company
  • Manufacturer
  • Wholesaler
    •

    ... and so on, the products go through various companies before reaching store shelves for the first time.

    Of course, every company operates to make a profit. The more companies involved in getting a product on the shelves, the higher the intermediate costs will be.

    Minimizing intermediate costs

    Even if it is a necessary expense for the company to survive, it is not good for customers to have costs go up as a result.

    So HushTug By keeping "intermediate costs from factory to retailer" to a minimum, we are able to offer bags of the same quality at an affordable price.

    Here's what happens when a regular brand bag and a HushTug bag get to the customer's hands:

    Although they use leather from Himeji, one of Japan's leading leather producing regions, and are produced in Japanese sewing factories with the most cutting-edge technology, their prices are reasonable compared to other brands of similar quality.
