About
Founded in Taipei in 2017, Darker Than Black Bags is led by designer Yu-Shan and builds its collection around gender-neutral bags in naturally tanned leather. Its range includes hobo bags, shoulder bags, backpacks, crossbody bags, tote bags, and small leather goods. Shown styles include black leather totes, curved-opening shoulder bags, geometric stitched totes, and an embossed card holder. Selected designs use imported Italian soft nappa cowhide with a supple body and structured base, while adjustable straps, knot-based strap controls, and specially moulded curved bottoms alter carrying options and support. The brand expects naturally tanned leather to develop marks shaped by each owner’s daily use.
