Vintage Comme des Garçons Structured Wool Tote Black

Somewhere between Aoyama’s concrete hush and the workshop’s wool scraps, this Comme des Garçons tote takes shape: sharp at the edges, uncompromising in its geometry. The exterior is constructed in dense black felted wool, the surface matte and slightly textured to the touch. Double top handles in matching material allow for handheld carry, while a silver-tone zipper runs the length of the structured opening.

Inside, a black cotton lining conceals a single zip pocket and an open slip compartment, the bag’s only nods to ornament being the clean lines of its construction and the glint of hardware. No visible logo, label, or serial number interrupts the surface; the design holds itself apart from overt branding.

Condition is very good with only slight wear from use—light softening at the corners and faint surface marks visible under close inspection, but the silhouette remains sharply intact. This is Comme des Garçons working in the register of restraint, where the material and cut carry the message.
