"French elegance and Japanese simplicity is the design philosophy at Michino. French Elegance is about timeless proportions and material excellence while Japanese Simplicity is about the minimalist approach and bringing functionality and versatility at the forefront of design decisions. Each design is the result of many cycles of trials and what you see here is a filtered edit of what is remaining after rounds of modifications to perfect the design.
Each Michino bag is designed with care with the highest quality leather and made in the best ateliers and factories. We source leather from the highest quality tanneries in France and make the bags in Italy and France. The proximity from Paris to our tanneries and ateliers allows us to follow the quality of our productions. I am proud to work with each of our partners who I know from a long time.
Michino bags are elegant and also casual, functional and simple, easy to use but sophisticated to accompany for special occasions as well. I am interested in the highest quality materials from specific sourcing and superior craftsmanship. I believe it's this versatility and the quest for excellence that make Michino, a unique independant brand." - Yasu Michino (Designer and Founder)
