COW SKIN ABOUT LEATHER:
We used aniline-finished cowhide leather, selecting leather of the appropriate thickness to ensure the bag maintains its shape properly.
Although the weight is kept light, the bag maintains a sturdy shape.
It features the natural texture inherent in genuine leather, and its appeal lies in how it softens and changes over time with each use.

The brand name CCU (pronounced "see see you") originates from the festival called "Chagu Chagu Umako".
The Chagu Chagu Umakko festival originated from the "love of horses" exemplified by the Nanbu Magariya houses of Iwate Prefecture, and began as a festival held as the only day of rest during the busy farming season when horses were still used for agricultural work.
CCU pays homage to that spirit of loving one's horse, aiming to create a timeless product that grows more endearing with each use.
Based on the concept of "LEATHER-COMFORTALE-PRODUCT," the brand uses soft leather materials to dispel the conventional image of leather as being stiff and difficult to wear, and employs pattern making that emphasizes the space between the human body and the leather.
The collection primarily features shirts, along with a lineup of leather items designed to blend seamlessly into everyday life.

The brand name CCU originates from the festival called 'Chagu Chagu Umako,' a traditional event in Iwate where horses adorned in elaborate harnesses proceed ceremoniously. Chagu Chagu Umako began about 200 years ago as a celebration to honor horses, allowing farmers to give their horses a day off after the rigors of rice-planting and to pray for their health at the shrine. CCU aims to create versatile products that honor this spirit of equine love, designed to deepen the bond with horses with every use. Under the concept of 'LEATHER-COMFORTABLE-PRODUCT,' the company selects soft leather materials that defy the perception of leather as stiff and uncomfortable. Our approach includes meticulous patternmaking that considers the space between the human body and the leather. We offer a conventional lineup of leather items designed to seamlessly integrate into your daily life.
