fragment design RAMIDUS SHIJIMI bags release in black and khaki as part of an ongoing collaboration between Hiroshi Fujiwara’s fragment design and Japanese bag label RAMIDUS. The SHIJIMI bag takes its name from the small clam it resembles and features a compact, rounded silhouette intended for everyday carry. The design includes a zippered main compartment, short carry handles, and a detachable shoulder strap for multiple carrying options. Branding is kept minimal, with subtle fragment design lightning bolt logos paired with RAMIDUS labeling.
The bags are constructed from durable nylon fabric suited for daily use and light travel. Interior compartments provide basic organization for small personal items such as phones, wallets, and accessories. The black and khaki color options align with the understated aesthetic common to both brands. The SHIJIMI bags are released in limited quantities and follow RAMIDUS’s standard production and sizing specifications for small-format utility bags.
