Transform Any Wrap into a Tote with the ToteBar
A sleek, wooden handle that turns your favorite furoshiki into a sustainable, stylish bag.
The ToteBar, also known as a Patchin (パッチン in Japanese), is a clever wooden handle that lets you turn a furoshiki or square scarf into a handbag. Originally popularized in Japan as an elegant way to carry fabric-wrapped items, our modern ToteBar is a fresh take on this time-honored accessory.
It’s the perfect tool for anyone who wants to create a reusable, versatile bag—no sewing, buttons, or tools required.
