The “Drawer Pouch,” part of the Hobonichi Techo lineup, is a pouch that lets you store your favorite and important items all in one place. It’s like carrying around an organized drawer with you wherever you go.
This pouch in the theme My Coffee brings illustrator Yumi Kitagishi’s drawings to life. It depicts a quiet and gentle time of relaxation, with a coffee in one hand as your companion. The black background is studded with colorful illustrations, and the pink binding and zipper pull of the case serve as accents. The interior is also in a pink shade.
The Drawer Pouch Áne (AH-nay, “older sister” in Japanese) is the size of a wallet and opens accordion-style. The Áne works great as a wallet for your cards and bank books, but it’s also perfect for storing other smaller items, such as writing accessories, tickets, and headphones.
It even has enough room to store a Hobonichi Techo Weeks or a Weeks Mega.
Each side of the interior contains 6 card pockets as well as larger pockets, for tickets and other long items.
The zipper pocket going down the center of the pouch is 9 cm (3.5 in) deep. This handy pocket is great for keeping not only pens and erasers, but also keys, pills, and other small items you want to keep extra-safe.
There’s also a small bonus pocket on the outside for drivers licenses, insurance cards, or other important items.
There’s also a pocket on the exterior of the Drawer Pouch Áne, for smartphones or other items you use frequently.
While the drawer pouch has plenty of room to store belongings, the narrow gusset makes it easy to store in any bag.
By keeping all your most important items in the Drawer Pouch Áne, you can keep your desktop and the inside of your bag free of clutter. It can serve in all kinds of roles, depending on what you do: A wallet, a stationery case, a place for your sewing tools, a travel pouch. With the Drawer Pouch Áne, you can keep your most important things handy at all times.
Store money, cards, cosmetics, and your techo. Being able to store your most important items in one portable case makes this a great wallet.
