Designer Ko Soda creates one-of-a-kind leather bags and shoes that disrupt the status quo. After twenty years working in leather with meticulous care and advanced techniques, he began to see beauty in the raw aspects of the trade. To push the boundaries of his craft, Soda founded the Numekawa Patchwork (NPW) School, a workshop and style that uses only scissors and hammers to upcycle scrap leather into entirely new works.
