soul;solid
(Aichi)
She collected a box full of small screws, and bought various KTC and Snap-on tools without actually using them.
Ms. Kasumi Narita says that for some reason she has always had a special love for metal.
At the same time, she has also been a fan of leather, so she launched the brand soul;solid to create products that combine these two materials.
While she has had a long career as a copywriter (with some interruptions while raising her children), she decided to teach herself leathercraft in the hopes of creating a career that she could continue for the foreseeable future.
She began by buying things she liked, taking them apart, looking at the parts that were not visible from the outside, touching them with her hands, and understanding their structure.
The brand name soul;solid reflects the desire to provide gear made from high-quality leather and heavy metal (brass) that is worthy of being owned by adults who have devoted their souls to both work and play.
Narita hopes that the image of adults enjoying life with what they believe to be good things will be seen as cool by the younger generation.
