Starting this season, ITTI will be offering items made with the new material CRACK.
This lineup includes wallets, bags, charms, and other items that blend naturally into your everyday outfits, but you can feel the difference the moment you pick them up.
New beauty begins with cracks.
CRACK is a leather that has been "upcycled" using a unique process using natural leather that was unfortunately not selected for the S or A rank.
Special paints and chemicals are used to deliberately create cracks, giving the leather depth and texture of vintage leather.
The more you use it, the more the surface peels off, revealing the color and texture of the underlying surface.
This change is truly what you would call "nurtured leather."
This is a material that you can enjoy as it gradually develops into a piece that is uniquely yours from the day you get it.
Pushing the boundaries between crude and refined.
This treatment is usually applied to the velour surface, but CRACK deliberately applies it to the grain surface.
Not too rugged, but not too safe either.
A quiet dignity within a rough look - this is a new expression that embodies the balance that is characteristic of ITTI.
Beauty that peels off with every touch.
The greatest appeal of this material is its beauty, which is based on the premise that it will peel off.
The base coat that naturally rises with friction and use is a testament to the care given to the product and tells the story of its aging.
ITTI proposes not something that is complete, but something that is "in the process of being completed."
CRACK is a new material that is worthy of embodying this philosophy.
This season's collection aims to develop the possibilities of this material into classic wallets, bags and charms, while creating items that "blend into everyday life and move the heart at unexpected times."
The lineup will be introduced sequentially on our online store and at ICHI GALLERY.
Please pick it up, use it and experience the new look of this leather.
