I dare not show it.

Where does the beauty of leather products reside?
Matching hand-stitched threads.
Accurate machine stitching.
Polished edges.
And metal fittings with a strong presence.
There are techniques and sensibilities that craftsmen have acquired over a long period of time.
However, what Has is aiming for is not to show off that technology.
Another important idea advocated by Has.
“I dare not show it.”
Just because you can create beautiful seams, there's no need to make them stand out.
Even if the metal fittings themselves are attractive, there is no need to make them stand out as decoration.
At Has, we strive to bring out the beauty of the leather itself by not letting elements such as seams or metal fittings stand out, based on the design concept of "Wrapping".
It's not about hiding technology.
In fact, there is no need to show it off because you have reliable technology.
to sew.
To judge.
to assemble.
To finish.
Each piece of work quietly supports the product, and we make sure that the technology does not draw more attention than necessary.
What remains is the look of the leather.
Natural grain.
Softness when you touch it.
The luster that appears when exposed to light.
The color and texture gradually change the more you use it.
I think what Has wants to show is not the craftsmanship itself, but the ``beauty of leather'' that is brought out by the craftsmanship.
Has applies this idea to architecture as well.
Because it is a space with little decoration or information, you may notice the beauty of the materials, light, and shapes themselves.
In the same way with leather products, instead of adding something, we remove unnecessary things.
The more you remove it, the less you can fool yourself.
How to choose leather.
How to draw a line.
Balance of form.
And the precision of the tailoring.
Because of its simplicity, each piece determines the appearance of the product.
When you actually look at Has bags, the leather surfaces and silhouettes are more impressive than the decorations. VAGI, which makes use of soft leather drapes, is also characterized by its appearance that takes advantage of the texture of the material.
It's not about adding something to catch the eye.
It's not about showing off your skills in order to convey them.
There are things that can be seen by not showing them.
The expression of the leather that remains after scraping off and the beauty of the shape.
This is where Has's idea of manufacturing lies.
“I dare not show it.”
These words are modest, yet strongly express the aesthetic sense of the Has brand.
