This Korean bag brand is all about minimalist chic with a touch of retro. With their brand motto \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">daily bags for daily lives<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u201d the designs are perfect for everyday use. The perfect combination of small, sleek, simple build and having practical space and storage makes it perfect for school, work, and travelling. I\u2019d say this Korean bag brand would easily go well with whichever fashion style you have.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Joey Bag Mini Bag<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89046\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini.webp\" alt=\"Stand Oil Joey Mini\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upon entering their Seongsu store, the Joey Bag Mini immediately caught my eye! It\u2019s a more compact version of the original Joey Bag, which I also considered but it\u2019s too big and bulky for my liking. The mini version is better for my everyday needs. What I liked about it is the natural sheen and soft touch material it has. I\u2019m personally not too fond of heavy leather bags, that\u2019s why Stand Oil\u2019s vegan leather material is perfect for me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although, because it is made out of vegan leather, it has a risk of tattering and cracking in the long run. But seeing the material up close had me convinced that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">THIS<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a good quality Korean bag brand for its price! The zipper is sturdy and it has an easy strap you can adjust for a shoulder bag length and crossbody bag length. It\u2019s available in cream, marron and black, as well as camel, red, and black in suede material. I first thought about getting the marron bag with its brownish-red shade but it looks a bit too mature for my taste.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage-wise, I like bags that have their own built-in compartments to organise my tiny necessities like hand cream, lip gloss, mints, etc. The two flap pockets on the front are great for this. Don\u2019t be fooled by the buckle design! It\u2019s a button pocket that you can easily open and close. It also has a one slit pocket at the back and a pocket compartment inside. I badly wanted this bag but it was sold out when we visited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The original price of this bag was KRW 109,000 but they\u2019re currently on sale in the physical store for 5% off. I highly recommend that you stop by and check it out if you\u2019re going on a Seoul trip soon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89045\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini-1.webp\" alt=\"Stand Oil Joey Mini 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Joey-Mini-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 109,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cream, Marron, Black, Suede Camel, Suede Black, Suede Red<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">31 x 18.5 x 8.3 cm \/ 435g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Height<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">21~53 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">41~101 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vegan leather (None-Animal), Polyester 100%<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chubby Bag<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89044\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag.webp\" alt=\"Stand Oil Chubby Bag\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was the star of the show inside the Stand Oil flagship store since it was popular among k-pop idols. I first spotted this brand on Le Sserafim&#8217;s Yunjin and absolutely loved how she decorated her Chubby bag. And here I am!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Stand Oil bag is a more classy and minimalist model compared to the Joey Bag. It\u2019s modeled to be like a retro bowling bag with its round and plump shape that gives you a lot of space for your everyday needs. Still made out of vegan leather material, but this time it has an oily gloss finish that\u2019s relatively scratch-resistant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes this Korean bag eye-catching is its vintage-style handle that feels very sturdy. The long length also makes it convenient to reach inside the bag while still wearing it as a shoulder bag. It may look small but the compartments actually fit a lot! The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chubby Bag<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has two front pockets that can fit keys, airpods, or lip gloss. It has a tiny lip pocket at the back for anything you need in a jiffy.

I personally like this one better because the material is lighter and has a more expanded size compared to the rigid shape of the original Chubby bag. It has the same exact compartments:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 front pockets<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 lip pocket at the back<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 open pockets inside<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 zipper pocket inside<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The difference is mostly with the handle. Because it has softer nylon material, it has a holder to secure the long bag handle to keep them from flopping around. It\u2019s available in nylon gray, cream, black, and soft pink. As of now the nylon variant is only available in their physical stores. I was torn between this and the Joey Mini bag<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This nylon version has a more cool and sporty feel to it which I find more apt to the usual outfits I wear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89042\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag-Nylon-1.webp\" alt=\"Stand Oil Chubby Bag Nylon 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag-Nylon-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Stand-Oil-Chubby-Bag-Nylon-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 109,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nylon Gray, Cream, Black, Soft Pink<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">31.8 x 15.5 x 11.8 cm \/ 382g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Height<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">28 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">69 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nylon, Vegan leather (None-Animal), Polyester<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. minitmute<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-89033 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag.webp\" alt=\"Minitmute Clo Waist Bag\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/list\/minitmute\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#EE4D2D;border-color:#bf3e24;border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow external\" title=\"Shop Now\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><span style=\"color:#ffffff;padding:0px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:36px;border-color:#f4836c;border-radius:9px;text-shadow:none\"> Shop Now<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Location: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">315-10 Seongsu-dong 2(i)-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea 04782 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/naver.me\/xDJuwYKh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow external noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naver Pin<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minitmute was an unexpected stop that I came across while walking through Seongsu. I didn\u2019t get to take a photo of the storefront and it\u2019s a little hard to spot, but you\u2019ll know when you get there! First impressions: most of their stuff gives off Lululemon bag vibes (which I like). If it\u2019s not obvious enough, I do prefer the sporty-looking ones for my everyday bag. And this brand is perfect!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minitmute specialises with light and small bags for traveling that have a retro touch to it. Very minimalistic designs and colours too which is convenient for matching with any type of outfit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clo Waist Bag<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89032\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag-1.webp\" alt=\"Minitmute Clo Waist Bag 1\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag-1.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Minitmute-Clo-Waist-Bag-1-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Clo Waist Bag caught my attention because of its similarity with Lululemon bags. Technically, it is named \u201cwaist bag\u201d but it\u2019s an absolute chameleon! The bag straps can be adjusted for a shoulder bag length and a crossbody bag length, which is perfect for travel! It\u2019s secured with a snap buckle that I find handy when going through airport security. Just snap it off, let it go through the x-ray scan, then just snap it back on!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minitmute bags are made out of eco-friendly recycled fabric and have S certification from the Dutch Control Union. This means it has excellent dye uniformity and value, ensuring the bag\u2019s high-quality build. The material is also water-resistant making it a perfect everyday bag.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s quite spacious inside as well and has a zipper pocket for smaller essentials. But this was a minus for me since I prefer bags with built-in compartments. You can put a lot of stuff in it, even an <em>Owala water bottle<\/em> might fit inside, but because it has no compartments, I can already tell the contents inside will be too scattered for my liking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nevertheless, if you prefer the sack bag style for your items, this is a perfect travel bag! It\u2019s available in butter, black, mix black, blue bell, soft pink, and apricot. If you prefer to have more space, they have a larger variant that\u2019s available in butter, black, and soft pink.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 90.2495%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.0952%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regular Size<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 37.6837%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large Size<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.0952%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 140,000<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 37.6837%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 180,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.0952%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Butter, Black, Mix Black, Blue Bell, Soft Pink, Apricot<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 37.6837%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Butter, Black, Soft Pink<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.0952%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25.5 x 17.5 x 6 cm \/ 170g<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 37.6837%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">48 x 26 x 10 cm \/ 263g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length (Max)<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.0952%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">98.5 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 37.6837%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">99 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 26.1354%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 73.7789%;\" colspan=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recycle Nylon, YKK Zipper, Nickel Satin<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

I came across their Flamma House by Findkapoor showroom which was hidden in one of the smaller side streets of Seongsu. It was a nice experience looking through their store since there were little to no people because of their hidden location. So if you want a calmer shopping experience, I highly recommend this store over Stand Oil.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bella Bag 22<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89025\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22.webp\" alt=\"Findkapoor Bella Bag 22\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My objective for this Seongsu trip was to get a tiny bag and their Flamma House collection got me hooked! This Bella Bag 22 is like a dream come true! It\u2019s small but the space inside can fit a lot of essentials. I can see myself using this for night outs, parties, and other events. Despite being made out of vegan leather, it has a plump texture to it. It has one zipper pocket inside to separate tinier essentials. The Findkapoor logo is lightly embossed on the front which is perfect for minimalist lovers like me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s very simple but I can definitely see this bag fitting well in the Y2K trend. You can pair it with nice jeans or a mini skirt, <em>kind of like XG style, if you know what I mean.<\/em> It\u2019s available in pale green, pale blue, lemon, and black, which makes it easy to pair with any type of night out fit. Wear it with a sheer or silk top or anything that\u2019s glittery and sparkly. It has an O-ring for its strap which you can hang some cute keychains on. This was definitely one of my top choices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89024\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22-1.webp\" alt=\"Findkapoor Bella Bag 22 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Bella-Bag-22-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 91.332%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 42.2451%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 58.7832%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 129,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 42.2451%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 58.7832%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pale Green, Pale Blue, Lemon, Black<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 42.2451%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 58.7832%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">22 x 14 x 8 cm \/ 160g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 42.2451%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 58.7832%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">37-61cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 42.2451%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 58.7832%;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vegan leather (Non-Animal)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Belty Pocket Bag 25<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89027\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25.webp\" alt=\"Findkapoor Belty Pocket Bag 25\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I did say I loved the Bella Bag 22 but their Belty Pocket Bag 25 is a close contender. Findkapoor designs have the perfect balance of simple and fashionable! This definitely has an edgier feel to it compared to the Bella Bag 22. For vegan leather material, this bag was quite thick and sturdy. It has a two-pocket design at the front where you can put tiny essentials like airpods, lip gloss, etc. It has a D-ring detail as well where you can hang additional accessories or decorate it with your own keychains. The belt strap is adjustable for shoulder bag length and cross-body bag length.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Design-wise, I love it. The vintage blue colour desperately calls for me! I love how the vintage color adds texture to the smooth vegan leather material. Besides vintage blue, it\u2019s also available in white, silver, lime, chrome, brown, and black.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Utility-wise, the space is too small for my liking. I was expecting the outer pocket to fit a phone at least but upon comparison, an iPhone 14 is still bigger. The rigid frame of the bag also provides less space inside. However, the number of compartments gets plus points for me! Just like the Bella Bag, this is perfect for more casual hangouts and parties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89026\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25-1.webp\" alt=\"Findkapoor Belty Pocket Bag 25 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Findkapoor-Belty-Pocket-Bag-25-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 159,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vintage Blue, White, Silver, Lime, Chrome, Brown Black<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25 x 13.5 x 6 cm \/ 385g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">35 &#8211; 100 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vegan leather (Non-animal)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.

This brand is cheaper compared to most Korean bag brands I\u2019ve encountered in Seongsu, so if you\u2019re on a strict budget, I\u2019d say this brand\u2019s prices are great for their quality!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kemps Bag L<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89020\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L.webp\" alt=\"Ala Vague Kemps Bag L\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides hunting for a mini bag, I was also looking for a nice gym bag I can use for my workout sessions. The Kemps Bag looked like it fit what I needed! What caught my eye was the pocket compartments at the sides where my water bottle can fit perfectly. It\u2019s pretty spacious inside, enough to hold a 17-inch laptop. The material is made out of soft recycled nylon which makes the space expandable, enough for it to be an overnight bag I\u2019d say.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Kemps Bag comes with a webbing strap and a two-touch buckle for easy length adjustment. You can wear it as a shoulder bag or a crossbody bag. Even though the material doesn\u2019t have a rigid shape and is susceptible to having scattered contents, the design is smart enough to include compartment pockets inside! It comes with two exterior magnetic snap flap pockets that can fit a phone, two inside pocket compartments, and one open pocket for a laptop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a great utility bag for work, school, or for the gym. It comes in a smaller size if you would like a more compact one. This is definitely one of the bags that I regret I didn\u2019t end up going back to!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89019\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L-1.webp\" alt=\"Ala Vague Kemps Bag L 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Ala-Vague-Kemps-Bag-L-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 89,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blue, Beige, Black, Light Khaki<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">40 x 25 x 13 cm \/ 455g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">73 &#8211; 115 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recycled nylon<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5.

OSOI uses genuine leather that ill last a long time. The designs have a more classy statement to them which is more fit for semi-formal events. As their brand motto states, OSOI offers \u201ctimeless value\u201d for their customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pillow BAU<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While they\u2019re known for their signature circular Toni bag, what caught my attention was the simple look of their Pillow BAU bag. It\u2019s a shoulder bag made out of full-grain leather and has fillers to create the soft volume texture. The glossy finish gives it a sleek, clean, and sophisticated look which makes it perfect for both casual and formal events. The strap is adjustable and is made with OSOI\u2019s self-developed BAU decoration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So far, out of all the OSOI bags I looked at, this is my favourite! What I love about this bag is despite looking like a tiny purse, the interior is divided into three compartments. This makes it easy to organise the essentials you need to bring. Compared to other Korean bag brands, OSOI is more on the pricey side due to its 100% genuine cow leather material.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89036\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Pillow-BAU-1.webp\" alt=\"OSOI Pillow BAU 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Pillow-BAU-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Pillow-BAU-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 429,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cream, Black, Choco Brown<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">31 x 16 x 14 cm \/ 563g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">33 &#8211; 39 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exterior: Cow leather 100%<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interior: Polyester 85%, Polyurethane 15%<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Folder Brot<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89035\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot.webp\" alt=\"OSOI Folder Brot\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides the circular Toni bag, the Brot series is another one of OSOI\u2019s signatures. I got curious and checked out the Folder Brot with its unique folder bag style. I was amused with its opening hinges similar to the vintage purses you see from movies set in the 1920s. (Although it does require a little more effort to open and close the bag). It\u2019s a cute and classy bag that\u2019s available in eight colours \u2013 from classic neutrals like cream to more chic options like the now-trending cherry red.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The strap length is adjustable for a tote bag length and a shoulder bag length. Storage-wise, it\u2019s wide enough to store a lot of things. Although personally, I didn\u2019t like how the flap takes up most of the bag space. Design-wise it\u2019s great, but practicality-wise, I think it\u2019s better used as a special event bag.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89034\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot-1.webp\" alt=\"OSOI Folder Brot 1\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot-1.webp 450w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/OSOI-Folder-Brot-1-225x300.webp 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price in Store<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KRW 329,000<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available Colours<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cream, Choco Brown, Light Mint, Black, Nubuck Lavender, Nubuck Brown, Prism White, Prism Yellow<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dimensions and Weight<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">30 x 13 x 7.5 cm \/ 630g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strap Length<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">84 cm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Material<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exterior: Cow leather 100%<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interior: Cotton 100%<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6.

While OSOI stands for timeless and classic quiet luxury, Matin Kim designs lean more on the trendier and more youthful side. I visited their special flagship store in Seongsu that was a bit difficult to find. Upon seeing their store, Matin Kim designs tend to be teetering in between casual and semi-luxury street style. If you\u2019re a Y2K street style enthusiast like me, you\u2019ll love this Korean bag brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nylon Boston Bag<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-89030\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Matin-Kim-Nylon-Boston-Bag.webp\" alt=\"Matin Kim Nylon Boston Bag\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Matin-Kim-Nylon-Boston-Bag.webp 600w, https:\/\/shopee.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Matin-Kim-Nylon-Boston-Bag-300x225.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to Stand Oil\u2019s Nylon Chubby Bag, Matin Kim\u2019s Nylon Boston Bag gives off a sporty casual chic look.

Their bag designs are chic, bold, and edgy. Definitely not your basic tote! I am still very much tempted by their Boho Pocket bag because it\u2019s perfect to bring along for a workday night out. If you\u2019re looking to stand out with something sculptural and fashion-forward, this is the one. Jedrefeb5 only makes their bags available online since they have no physical stores yet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slay in these chic options from the best Korean bag brands<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After hours of deliberation <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(and maybe a few too many iced coffees)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, I ended up bringing home two bags with me. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drumroll please&#8230;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Stand Oil Joey Bag Mini in Cream and the Matin Kim Half Shirring Ribbon Round Bag in Charcoal were my top two choices.
