HobonichiDrawer Pouch Dangle (Hiroko Kubota: Aurora Duty)

HOBONICHI STORE ONLY

The Drawer Pouch Dangle is a messenger bag-type pouch that allows you to carry around your wallet, cell phone, keys and pens. It’s perfect to carry around your belongings with you when you head to town, when you’re in the office or at home.

Illustrator Hiroko Kubota created this art piece called “Aurora Duty.” It was featured on the Hobonichi Techo 2023 English Weeks book cover, and now it’s available on a Drawer Pouch.

The artwork depicts a quiet night in a distant northern country, with a polar bear waving an enormous flag. It appears that it’s the bear’s turn tonight to draw an aurora across the sky, for Aurora Duty. The back of the pouch shows one more bear pulling along a warm drink on a sled. The beautiful aurora sparkling across the night sky uses glitter for effect.

It comfortably fits an A6-sized book and has an ample gusset. Despite its compact look, it has plenty of storage and is perfect to use alongside a Drawer Pouch Pocket.

The pouch interior has a magnet button to close the pouch on the interior and a small pocket. The pocket is perfect to store items that you use frequently or are important, such as your lip balm and keys.

It has a thin strap to hang from your shoulder so you can keep your hands free while you carry around the items you need. You can adjust the length of the strap with an adjuster.

When the pouch is empty, you can compactly fold it like a paper bag so it’s easy to bring along with you.

We hope you enjoy this Drawer Pouch Dangle, whether you’re at home or out and about, and dangle your own “drawer” filled in with the things you love.

These pouches are part of the “Artistic Drawer Pouch” series, which was created alongside five artists so you can enjoy carrying around your favorite art.
