Description

Crafted from premium horse culatta, the Gireogi Bag is an evolution from the bojagi way of carrying important items. This belted tote bag features an adjustable edge painted, knotted shoulder strap with an exclusive leather-paracord rope accessory representing geese migration patterns; from the heaviness of a 기러기 아빠 (gireogi appa) traveler. Details include: Lining welt pocket. Inside and outer double keychain loops. Magnetic close. Cotton sateen lining. Ivory wax thread detail stitching.

About

Designer Gloria Im graduated with a BFA in fashion design before beginning her work under the pseudonym "gsongim." Her studio is in New York's Lower East Side, a brief walk from our storefront on Orchard St. Not just our neighbor, Gloria is a pillar of the Komune community. She creates bespoke apparel, accessories, and home goods using leather, durable wovens, and premium metals. Gloria prioritizes utility. Her work is meant to be used relentlessly, its form molding to the owner. Gloria frequently draws inspiration from organic forms, but renders them in dark tones. The result is a paradoxically macabre aesthetic.
