1. Anello
When most people think Japanese handbags, they immediately think of Anello. Anello arrived on the fashion scene in 2005 and was immediately recognized for having a wide zipper opening. Being able to stash your stuff in the bag easily and get things out of it just as easily made it a very popular choice. The Annello backpack is the signature bag favored for its utilitarian yet modern design. Some of the popular features include the top grab handles and wide zipper openings that make it easy to stuff larger items. The bags are made of a canvas, soil resistant, waterproof polyester combo. The design for a busy lifestyle made these bags very popular. You can find a few PU and leather styles, as well as a handful of messenger bags. The prices range from around $30 to $80.
