All actions involving the backpack, including taking things out, are smooth and smart!
Slim and cool! How is this backpack so easy to access despite its large capacity and appearance?
If you're a backpack lover, we want you to try this! We'd like to introduce you to a revolutionary backpack!
The president of a bag shop, who loves backpacks and gets really passionate about them, has taken his favorite vintage backpack with two compartments on top and bottom and brought it back to life with an innovative design that makes it easy to access what's inside.
SeowU, created by the president of Kawanishi Kaban, who says, "We make no compromises in our products!", has a two-chamber structure on the top and bottom, which allows you to store your belongings in a designated place and access "the thing you want to take out" with a single action.
① [Organization] No more searching for your luggage! The two-room structure keeps your luggage in its proper place
② [Easy to use] Smooth removal of luggage! Access contents with one action
③【Arrangement】Large luggage is no problem! Remove the partition to make it a one-room apartment
④【Material】Can be used in harsh environments! Ballistic nylon that is resistant to rain, dirt, and abrasion
⑤【Design】Can be used for both work and play! Slim, unisex and simple form
⑥【Function】Stress-free usability! High-spec details
One of the problems that backpack users have had for many years is that it is difficult to take out their belongings!
This is because if you pack your belongings from the top down into a large, vertical space, the items at the bottom will get buried, and when you move around while carrying the bag, the items will all get mixed up.
Therefore, we developed a backpack that divides the inside into two compartments, allowing you to store your belongings in a designated place.
<Upstairs Room> Storing "heavy luggage" Packing techniques that change the way you feel
The upper room is where you store your heavier luggage.
The basic rule of packing is to store heavy items on top of the backpack and on your back!
The perceived weight of a backpack will change depending on where you put your belongings, so if you keep these basic tips in mind, the contents will feel lighter when you wear the backpack.
The room above is recommended for storing heavy items such as water bottles and plastic bottles, as well as tripods, PC chargers, and mobile batteries.
There is a zippered mesh pocket on the back, so you can store cords for chargers and other items together.
There is a pocket underneath the mesh pocket on the lid. This pocket is deep and reaches all the way to the bottom of the backpack, so you can store important documents, files, notebooks, etc.
<<Lower Room>> What's the smart way to store "items you need right away" and access them?
The first floor of the two-story building is recommended for storing your wallet and iPad, which you will need to take out frequently. It is large enough to fit a 12-inch iPad, but the key to ease of access is to not put too much inside.
The lower compartment is well cushioned, so you can safely store precision equipment such as cameras.
If you want to take it out and use it quickly, store it on the first floor.
The bottom is padded 10mm thick and the sides are padded 5mm thick.
Why do you store your "immediately needed luggage" in the room below?
There's a secret to removing it smartly!
One of the main features of seowU is that it is easy to take out your belongings with one action. One of the inconveniences of backpacks is the number of actions required to take out your belongings.
When I try to take my wallet out of my old backpack,
・Put down your backpack
・Hold it in front
・Open the zipper
・Looking for a wallet
Take out your wallet
There are many steps and it is quite troublesome...
That's why we conducted extensive research to make it easy to take out your wallet with just one action!
The long zipper on the opening of the seowU opens all the way to the bottom, so you can open the backpack sideways. ( The main zipper opens both ways.)
A backpack that lets you take out your wallet with one action! That's seowU.
The double zipper means you can open it from the other side. It is also recommended for left-handed people .
"I want to fit a lot of big luggage in there!"
In such cases, you can remove the divider to transform it into a normal backpack. The dividers are attached to the backpack with Velcro and snaps.
If you remove the Velcro and snaps on the back and store them on the lid, it turns into a normal backpack.
Outer leather: Cordura® ballistic nylon
The fabric used for the outer fabric of seowU is made of Cordura® ballistic nylon, which is seven times stronger than ordinary nylon, has excellent durability, and is strong enough to be used in bulletproof vests.
(The name tag is in production. The design may be different on the actual product.)
The fabric, made from nylon fibers developed by the American chemical company DuPont, has a matte and smooth texture that gives it a luxurious feel.
It is resistant to wear, tearing, and abrasion, and is used in everyday outdoor and business bags as well as military equipment.
*The sewn seams are not water-repellent, so they do not indicate the water-repellent status of the entire backpack.
Handle: Setouchi leather
The Setouchi leather used in some areas is genuine domestic leather made from cows raised in the Setouchi region.
This leather has a high oil content and a moist, soft texture, making it perfect for handling.
The leather is made using a manufacturing process that makes the most of the individual characteristics of the material, so you can enjoy the beautiful changes in silhouette, color, and luster that occur over time as you continue to use it.
Lining: Nylon 110 twill
The lining is made of 100% nylon, which is highly elastic and durable, and the back of the fabric is coated with acrylic, giving it a slightly water-repellent function. Even if you put a wet plastic bottle or umbrella inside, the water will not easily seep through to the surface of the backpack.
"Nylon 110 twill" is elastic, wrinkle-resistant, has a beautiful luster, and is just the right thickness for a luxurious feel.
The color is a moderately bright khaki gray, making the inside of the backpack bright and making it easier to find small items.
Mesh Fabric: W Russell
The back and the back of the shoulder straps are made of mesh fabric, which improves breathability and prevents stuffiness. Even on hot summer days or after intense exercise, it keeps you cool and comfortable without trapping heat.
The double layer of breathable mesh fabric provides peace of mind even on hot summer days.
We spent a lot of time designing the form, maintaining a flat appearance with all unnecessary elements removed, such as the outer pockets and zippers, and keeping the thickness of the backpack as small as possible.
*Model height 177cm
The unisex design makes it suitable for anyone looking for a cool and functional backpack.
*Model height 177cm
The stylish rectangular shape makes it a great business bag to pair with a suit, and not only does it make it easy to store your belongings, it also looks good when left out.
*Model height 177cm
■ There are 6 pockets in total that pursue functional beauty.
(1) Front pocket with waterproof zipper
The front pocket on the front of the backpack is equipped with a waterproof zipper.
The waterproof zipper, with no visible teeth, is a highlight of the flat design.
*Water-resistant zipper (YKK Aquaguard) is a zipper with a special tape treatment that seals the zipper tightly when the slider is closed, maintaining high water repellency. (*It is not completely waterproof.)
The top of the front zipper opens wide, so you can easily fit a long water bottle inside.
The back of the pocket is designed to be three-dimensional, so although it looks flat from the front, the shape of the bag will not collapse even if you put a thick plastic bottle or umbrella inside.
At the bottom, there are two pockets for pens and one pocket large enough to hold a smartphone.
(2) Mesh pocket ①
When you open the long zipper of the backpack, you will find a zippered mesh pocket on the lid of the second floor.
You can directly store things that tend to get caught, such as charger cords and small tripods, or things you want to keep in a pouch.
If you have too many pockets, you might lose track of where you put what...
The mesh pockets allow you to see the contents at a glance and prevent items from being left inside.
(3) Mesh pocket ②
There is also a zippered mesh pocket on the back of the second floor. Since it has a zipper, you can safely put small items such as USB memory sticks and SD card cases in it.
(4) Large front pocket
There is a large overlapping pocket under the mesh pocket on the lid. This pocket is deep and reaches all the way to the bottom of the backpack, so you can store important documents, files, notebooks, etc.
(5) Back mesh pocket
There is also a zippered mesh pocket on the lower back where it rests against your back when you wear the bag. You can store valuables such as tickets and passports, as well as coins.
When you're wearing clothes without pockets, this is a very convenient pocket to put your smartphone in and make it easy to take out.
When traveling by train with your backpack in front of you, it is also useful as a temporary place to store small items such as paperback books and smartphones.
(6) Waterproof zippered PC pocket on the back
At the very back, there is a pocket with a waterproof zipper for storing a computer.
The inside of the pocket is made of powder-touch microfiber fabric, which gently protects your PC so that you can store it without putting it in a case.
Although it looks small, the pocket is wide enough to easily fit a 13-inch laptop, making it easy to access.
■You won't get tired even if you carry it on your back! Comfortable to carry
We also paid special attention to the usability so that you can use it comfortably even when carrying a lot of luggage.
・Feature 1: Back cushion
The back of the bag is made of polyethylene foam, which is hard to flatten, and provides a soft feel when you carry it on your back. It is thick and fits gently on your back.
・Feature 2: Shoulder width and thickness
The shoulder area, which bears the most weight, is made of four 10mm layers of foamed polyethylene, which gives it a solid volume and reduces strain on the shoulders.
The process of stacking four sheets of 10mm polyethylene foam is a method that significantly reduces production efficiency, but we prioritize comfort when making the bag.
The shoulder width was set at 6cm, which was the bare minimum dimension required to maintain the bag's cool appearance while still providing functionality that makes it comfortable to wear for long periods of time.
・Feature 3: Back panel effect of PC pocket
Even if you are not carrying much luggage, you can put your PC in the PC pocket on the back, which will keep the backpack from rolling up and allow it to stand on its own, fitting better to your back and making it more comfortable to wear.
■ Chest strap fits your body
The chest strap attached to the center of the shoulder strap prevents the shoulder strap from slipping off the shoulder and helps the backpack fit snugly to the body, making the load feel lighter.
The chest strap is removable.
■Easy adjust function
The length of the shoulder straps can be adjusted once the backpack is on, allowing you to set it to the perfect length to fit your body perfectly.
Equipped with an "easy adjust function" that allows you to easily change the shoulder length.
How to adjust the shoulder strap
・Carrying seowU
- Insert your fingers into the loops at the ends of the shoulder straps and pull both straps tightly to adjust the length.
- If it is too short, lift the buckle up and it will automatically lengthen.
It can be easily adjusted when the comfort of carrying the bag changes depending on the amount of luggage you are carrying or the thickness of your jacket.
■ Carry fixing belt
There is a nylon strap in the center of the back to attach it to the handle of a carry-on suitcase.
If you are not using the shoulder strap, such as when carrying the bag by the top handle, you can also attach the shoulder strap to the bag.

"Manufacturing that will be loved for a long time" by focusing on handmade products in domestic workshops
Kawanishi Bag Products, which started out as a subcontractor for bag manufacturing, values "utilizing the techniques inherited from our predecessors and taking pride in the products we make."
It was a difficult journey to get to that answer.
Kawanishi Kaban's management philosophy is " " Creating products that will be loved for a long time ."
The true value of a bag is not revealed at the moment you buy it, but when you are using it.
In order for our bags to remain special, we aim to be a workshop where people get to know the artisans and staff who make our bags and think, "That bag was made by that person, so I'll take good care of it."
