All about Japanese backpacks
While Russian-made goods are certainly close and dear to our hearts, there are many amazingly made items that come to us from all over the world. In fact, we especially value one country located directly across the Pacific Ocean, Japan, and the backpacks that come from there.
Peculiarities
The Japanese backpack is very popular in our country, and this is not only because it is decorated in an original style. These backpacks are made of high quality, safe materials.
For children, models in Japan are necessarily made orthopedic so as not to spoil their posture.
The well-chosen color range will also delight the buyer. As accessories, you can see metal inserts, zippers, stripes in the form of animals, butterflies and flowers.
Natural or artificial leather is most often used as a material of manufacture in Japan. This is simply because it has many advantages:
-
does not wrinkle;
-
does not absorb odors;
-
does not cause allergies;
-
easy to clean.
If it is fake leather, then these backpacks weigh a little. Those made from natural materials can reach 1.5 kg.
All products, regardless of the model, are lined with polyurethane fabric inside. The seams are even, the threads are strong.
If plastic is used to decorate a backpack, then only with the addition of rubber. All metal inserts are made of aluminum.
