CASE of CASE
CHACOLI is a bag brand launched in Japan in 2011. It began when a Tokyo antiquarian bookstore owner commissioned a “case” to carry rare books without damaging them. Drawing on the two meanings of CASE—as a container and as a situation—the brand embraces “CASE of CASE” and pursues both functionality as a tool and the beauty of a bag’s presence. Its offerings, made in Japan, center on totes with partitioned interiors and self-standing forms, and include collections such as Frame and Military.

Concept

CASE refers both to a container for holding things and to a situation or circumstance. Based on these two distinct meanings of CASE, the brand pursues the appeal of practical tools and a beauty of presence that goes beyond utility.
