GUNUNG R TUBE POCHETTE | A one-of-a-kind pouch born from discarded inner tubes
Giving new life to used bicycle inner tubes. A handmade pouch with a unique look.
GUNUNG breathes new value into materials that have served their purpose as bicycle inner tubes and tires. More than just recycling, GUNUNG is a handmade brand that transforms unwanted items into appealing everyday goods.
The R TUBE POCHETTE, meticulously crafted one by one in a workshop in Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, is a pouch that combines discarded inner tubes as its main material with canvas fabric and leather straps. Each piece boasts a different texture and appearance, making every item a unique creation.
Its cute, rounded shape is perfect for everyday use. It can easily carry essentials like smartphones and wallets, making it ideal for walks, shopping, or city strolls while traveling.
A practical feature is its design, where the opening naturally narrows under the weight of its contents, preventing items from spilling out. This pouch embodies the unique sensibility of GUNUNG, born from bicycle culture.

I believe GUNUNG items are not just upcycled products, but "tools for enjoying the individuality of materials."
The texture and appearance unique to well-used inner tubes create an atmosphere that new materials cannot replicate, which is very appealing. The size is just right, making it very convenient for quick outings with just a smartphone and wallet.
It's recommended not only for bicycle enthusiasts but also for those who appreciate craftsmanship and handmade items. This pouch will grow on you with every use.
