Keiko Furoshiki x MexiMexi: Pairing the beauty of Japan and Mexico

We are thrilled to announce a special collaboration between MexiMexi and Keiko Furoshiki, bringing together the vibrant traditions of Mexican craftsmanship and Japanese elegance in an exclusive pairing of our beloved products.

This collaboration features 19 one-of-a-kind MexiMexi bags hand made in Jalisco from woven recycled plastic, each paired with one of four Keiko Furoshiki print designs.

MexiMexi and Keiko Furoshiki bring together their shared passion for art, culture, and sustainability. For a limited time, you can purchase a MexiMexi bag paired with a Keiko Furoshiki wrap from the Garden Collection. The colors of each bag are chosen by Laura from MexiMexi and the pairings have been hand-chosen by Keiko, ensuring a harmonious blend of colors and patterns that beautifully complement each other. The Garden Collection features four exclusive prints, each inspired by the seasonal beauty and cultural richness of Japan.

About MexiMexi

MexiMexi, founded by Laura Lule, is a brand deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Mexico. Laura's journey began in Mexico, where she grew up surrounded by the vibrant colors and textures of colonial towns, with their cobblestone streets, charming gardens, and artisanal crafts. Her love for handmade goods was nurtured by the warmth and authenticity of Mexican artistry, which she now channels into each MexiMexi bag. Based in Austin, Texas, Laura brings a blend of Mexican tradition and modern design to create bags that resonate with the heart and soul of those who carry them.

About Keiko Furoshiki

Keiko Furoshiki is a family-run business founded in Kansas City, Missouri, by Japanese-American artist Keiko Kira. Inspired by the centuries-old Japanese tradition of furoshiki, Keiko Furoshiki offers beautifully designed, multipurpose fabric wraps that can be used for gift wrapping, fashion, and home décor. Keiko's designs are deeply influenced by the natural landscapes and cultural crafts of Japan, where she spent her childhood. Each furoshiki print reflects the seasonal changes, traditional patterns, and everyday beauty of Japanese life, reimagined for modern use.

How to Use Your Furoshiki

These furoshiki wraps are not only a perfect embellishment for the MexiMexi bags, but they also offer endless possibilities for creative expression. Use them as a stylish accessory to tie around the handle of your bag, a sustainable alternative to disposable gift wrapping, or even as a unique piece of home décor. The versatility of furoshiki is matched only by the timeless appeal of MexiMexi bags, making this collaboration a celebration of tradition, creativity, and conscious living.
