Series "Aspiring Masterpieces" No.188 Paper Maruni makes your footsteps lighter.

The pop color palette is unique to MARNI, and the contrasting color logo print makes you jump up and down. This new-comer is perfect for the coming season and is surprisingly lightweight, as you will see when you hold it in your hand.

The secret of its lightness lies in the material used for the body. This material, which looks like washed cotton or something, is surprisingly paper. It is a paper fabric made from naturally occurring cellulose fibers, a material that may be unfamiliar to you, but is actually familiar to us. Yes, you read that right, it is a denim tag. Of course, it is not as strong as leather or cotton, but it has a certain level of water resistance and should be fine for everyday use.

The paper fabric, manufactured in Germany, is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Oeko-Tex, an international non-profit organization established in 1993 to promote ethical forest operations. Oeko-Tex is an international consortium established in 1992 to set safety standards for textile products.
