The 5th COLLECTION of "HT LABEL" is now available.

In 2014, to commemorate its 50th anniversary, Somes Saddle teamed up with shoe designer Hiroshi Tsubouchi as a new venture. This shoe expert, who has gained high acclaim both domestically and internationally with his shoe brand HIROSHI TSUBOUCHI, has taken on the challenge of designing bags for the first time, launching "SOMES SADDLE x HT LABEL".
"SOMES SADDLE x HT LABEL" combines the finest leather carefully selected by Somes Saddle with the elegant, sophisticated designs of Mr. Tsubouchi, who has a deep understanding of fashion and trends. Leveraging the techniques Somes Saddle has cultivated through saddle making, this season marks the launch of their fifth collection.

In its fifth collection, Somes Saddle's signature "shibori" (tie-dyeing) technique is further refined with new domestically produced vegetable-tanned leather. Tsubouchi's minimalist design sensibilities are extended to business settings, elevating these items to a level of elegance. From the meticulous leather-making process to the culmination of Made in Japan craftsmanship, take this opportunity to see it for yourself.

Workshops will be held on Saturday, October 29th and Sunday, October 30th.

Would you like to try making your own "string-stitched leather goods" using the same leather that Somes Saddle actually uses in its products? The "Leather Goods Workshop," held on Saturday, October 29th and Sunday, October 30th, allows you to choose your favorite leather string and thread it through the holes in the main body to complete your item. You can make a stitched keychain, a stitched coin case, or a stitched pen case. No reservation is required, so please sign up with a stylist in the store.
