▌ Bag VOLVE ™ designed by users for them
"VOLVE ™" was sent by Kibidango staff, who have been involved in many bag projects so far, based on the results of questionnaires for users and hearings from close friends. It is a unique bag packed with epoch-making ideas to fulfill the demands (patent / trademark pending).
▌Business bag that can change position instantly according to the situation
From the bag position to the front position and then to the brief style. Follow your situation promptly.
In addition, "Polygiene Viral Off ™ ️", which reduces the virus by 99% within 2 hours, is used for the lining material of the bag. It has also been proven to be effective against the new coronavirus.
The pouch, whose contents can be seen at a glance by using a transparent material, is movable and can be customized according to you. Please see the following page for details on many other various function introductions.
▌ [Review video] It's too smart even though it's full of amazing features!The final form of business bag
It is a video that clearly shows the actual usability and functionality, so please watch it!
▌ Instantly change the position of the bag according to the scene
The position can be changed instantly according to the scene, such as back position / front position / brief bag.
▌Easy to switch back and forth [One shoulder]
Designed to be almost perpendicular to the body when carried on the back, it looks like a backpack when viewed from behind, creating a stylish one-shoulder that tends to look unfashionable. However, the one-shoulder makes it easy to switch back and forth.
● No need to fasten 3 points and stress-free
The bag is designed to prevent it from slipping forward, eliminating the need for the three-point fastening that is typical of sling bags. You can ride a bicycle stress-free.
● Shoulder belt pocket
Structure that makes it easy to take out the smartphone
The shoulder belt is equipped with two sub-pockets that allow you to smoothly take out your smartphone or electronic money.
Large smartphone sizes such as iPhone Pro Max are also supported.
▌ Quickly change to [front position] in the car or in a crowd
A local rule peculiar to Japan that the bag should be held in front of other people so that it does not get in the way of other people on the train or in the crowd.
I think there are many people who feel this uneasy. With VOLVE, you can instantly switch to the front position, so it's stress-free.
In addition, the smartphone stand flap that comes in front of you in the front position and in the center is convenient for watching videos while commuting.
Furthermore, the front position, which allows you to take out the contents smoothly without being crowded, greatly expands the range of convenience depending on how you use it.
● Equipped with "KTMT thumb slider system" that allows belt adjustment with one thumb
The uniquely developed KTM T thumb slider system allows you to loosen the belt with just one thumb, making the transition to the front position smooth.
● Main compartment that opens in two stages
When opening the main compartment while carrying the bag, the stopper belts on both sides prevent unintentional full opening.
Quickly responds to sudden PC work on the go.
Shoulder belt pockets can be used even in the front position.
Electronic payment is also smooth.
● Hands-free smartphone stand flap that can be auditioned
You can stand your smartphone on a dedicated stand that has a built-in magnet and can be opened and closed, and you can watch and operate it hands-free.
We have implemented this function based on the opinions of everyone who often watch videos during trains, waiting times, and breaks around the world.
Rubber fabric is used for the lining to prevent slipping, so you can rest assured.
▌When visiting the company [briefcase style]
A brief bag is a must when visiting a company in business. VOLVE instantly transforms into a brief bag at the entrance of your visit.
All you have to do is fasten the shoulder belt with a carabiner.
▌ Storage pouch that can be customized according to your needs
The layout inside the bag can be freely adjusted according to the items you want to take out that day, such as folding umbrellas, PET bottles, water bottles, batteries, and gadgets.
Velcro is sewn on the back of the pouch and the inside of the bag body, so it can be stuck vertically or horizontally and firmly fixed and does not move.
● The transparent material allows you to see the contents at a glance
If you organize the contents of the storage pouch according to the scene you use, you can quickly lay out the pouch you need for the day.
Since it is firmly fixed by Velcro, there is no worry that the contents will collapse even if the position is changed.
▌ New material used for inner fabric to reduce virus by 99%
"Polygiene Viral Off ™ ️" is used for all inner fabrics. (* Pouches are also used for inner fabrics other than transparent plastic materials)
Just put it in the bag and you can reduce the virus by 99% in 2 hours.
* This effect is not permanent.
▌Convenient front and back storage pockets
● Front pocket
Even if the bag is turned upside down or laid down, it can be fixed with a rubber band so that things will not fall, and it can be stored in small pieces.
● Sleeve for notebook PC
A sleeve for notebook PCs with excellent impact resistance. Can store up to 16 inches in size.
● Back pocket that can hold a long wallet
Back pocket for quick access without moving the back.
It fits well in a long wallet and is safe for security, so it is recommended for storing valuables.
● Body design
There are 3 parts of the body and a core material in the handle, so it keeps its shape even if there is no luggage.
● YKK Water-R is used for the zip.
Zip puller is easier to pull than string
The zip uses YKK Water R. The zip is kneaded with a water-repellent material and has excellent water repellency and durability.
The pull tab has a slim fit style from Trimmers. Made of aircraft aluminum, suitable for large bags and easy to operate with one hand.
A gentle rubber puller from Trimmers is used on the surface that comes into contact with the body.
● Dustproof
The back-use zip (with the coil part inside) reduces friction on clothes, etc., and is devised to prevent dust and sand from entering.
▌Commitment to the materials used
● Dobby weave
We made a custom-made dobby woven fabric exclusively for VOLVE.
Dobby weaving is a weaving method for creating patterns with weaving threads, and gives the fabric a texture. Not only does it look cool, but it also has excellent tear strength (because the fabric is thick).
● Uses DURAFLEX parts
Uses DURAFLEX slider parts that are originally used for chest belts.
We paid particular attention to the details of the parts, enabling quick movement and hook structure.
▌ With eco bag & rain cover
A large-capacity dedicated eco-bag with compact storage is also included in the many accessory pouches that can be customized and laid out.
You can handle unplanned shopping when you return home without stress.
Also, in an emergency, the eco bag can be transformed into a rain cover. Protects the contents of important bags in sudden and severe bad weather such as guerrilla rainstorms.
* The belt part is not covered.
