this is most probably not the post for you!
Cokeco are a Fukuoka-based design duo who create leather
accessories inspired by the natural curiosities of the world around them, I should say that Fukuoka is the capital of Fukuoka Prefecture, that sits on the northern shore of
Japan’s Kyushu Island, and
in their quest for something different in their latest range of bags, keychains and other everyday
accessories, a multi legged creature was chosen,
the octopus, and was made into a number of fashion items, like the Octopus Bag (as seen above), it is an ingenious design that comes with a shoulder strap, now the neat bit, the tentacles also have magnets in them, allowing the octopus to to clip on to other bags as if it’s alive, there are also multiple storage pouches hidden in the head and tentacles,
behold the octopus back pack,
there is even a key chain,
comprised of partners Chie and Tatsuki Tanaka, Cokeco (pronounced Ko-keh-ko and taken from
the sound a rooster makes) will be having an exhibition in Tokyo later this
month from 9/20 – 9/23/2024 at this shop
and gallery in Kichijoji,
if course if you’re in Fukuoka you can always stop by their shop as well, or visit them online.
