What’s Anello All About?

Established in 2005, Anello® is a Japanese brand that focuses on bags. At the core of the brand is its dedication and attention to the manufacturing of these bags, regardless of the target gender, age groups, or market trends.

The Anello TOKYO store that we will be introducing today is the brand’s first venture in Tokyo and its first store in the city. Even though there has always been many shops carrying Anello goods, this is the only store in the city directly managed by Anello, which explains the full range of products you can find only in an official store!

The Anello Tokyo store is located on a corner of the Jingumae intersection, right in front of Exit 5 of Meiji-jingumae (Harajuku) Station. It is exceptionally accessible since it is located adjacent to Laforet Harajuku, so you can easily stop by as you go about sightseeing.

Designed with sustainability in mind, the shop reuses scrap materials, which keeps the interior simple yet stylish. The first floor is lined with Anello’s cutting-edge products, including the latest collection and Japan-limited goods. Meanwhile, Anello’s classic line up can be found on the second floor.

Most people know of Anello’s clasp backpacks, but here at the official store, the products are diverse, with sling bags, pass cases, coin pouches and tote bags on offer.

Recently, Anello announced the release of a new bag with customizable shoulder straps. This means that you can now mix-and-match your favorite colors to create your own unique combination!

The mini shoulder bag is made of polyester canvas fabric and is a perfect match with casual everyday outfits. With its size, the bag can hold long wallets and smartphones and is also suitable for casual outings.
