YOUniqlo and Marimekko have joined forces to unveil a new set of iconic round shoulder bags from the Japanese lifestyle brand. This time the series includes three bags, all of which show off printed details. The shoulder bag is extremely versatile in terms of function, color and design. The colorway includes black, white and camel; each with the signature Marimekko circle print.
At first glance, Uniqlo’s shoulder bag may seem unassuming, but its purposeful curved silhouette is tailor-made for convenient on-the-go storage. Once integrated into your routine, it becomes challenging to return to weaker alternatives. If words alone don’t convince you, Uniqlo offers a helpful resource videodemo on its site, showing off the bag’s impressive design. Adding to the allure is the use of water-repellent fabric, which keeps your gear both stylish and dry, even in unexpected rain showers.
For much of 2023, the previous version of the bag consistently sold out, further cementing its status as a cult favorite. This year marks a turning point, however, as Uniqlo looks to meet demand with increased production, including a recent collaboration with Marimekko, the Finnish textile experts known for their vibrant and eccentric patterns.
While the original still comes in a variety of colors reminiscent of a Crayola box, the subtly patterned Mekko joint stands out as a notable update. So we can expect Uniqlo’s unexpected sensation to continue to dominate the charts this new year.
Marimekko dresses the bag with their signature Kivet motif and offers it in light gray, dark gray and warm ocher beige. The dots, a shade lighter than the base, provide a subtle yet playful contrast. Clever details such as piping ensure the bag retains its unique shape, while a waterproof finish keeps your belongings safe. And at just $19.90, this bag is an absolute steal.
The Uniqlo x Marimekko 2024 shoulder bag is for sale at Uniqlo website and in stores since January 4. So ditch the predictable New Year’s resolutions and embrace a colorful, joyful New Year with Marimekko’s Kivet magic.
