Recopilación: COMAY

The COMAY look

Most COMAY bags are woven from water hyacinth fiber, a dense natural weave in a warm brown tone. The Bach Mon Water Hyacinth Fiber Bag is one of the most compact shapes, the Stella Hoa Thi Water Hyacinth Fiber Bag is the widest, and the Suong, To and Trang bags sit in between as everyday sizes. The Gao, May, Thoc, Kim and An bags carry Vietnamese names and the same construction: woven body, canvas lining, cow leather handles and trim. Brown leads the colorway, with black, yellow and green pieces for contrast.

The Chiem Raffia Bag and the Palea Raffia Bag use a lighter raffia weave, and the Amber Lepironia Grass Fiber Bag and the Émile Zipper Lepironia Grass Fiber Bag bring in lepironia, a reed-like grass. Zipper closures appear on the Ashima Zipper Water Hyacinth Fiber Bag and the Stella Zipper Water Hyacinth Fiber Bag, while the Clematis, Calla, Peony and Syvial bags take their names from flowers and have open tops.

Capsules and shapes

COMAY groups its bags into small capsules tagged Scent of Fields, Leaf Symphony and Sunwoven, which share materials and differ in shape and color. Because every bag is woven by hand from natural fiber, no two pieces are exactly alike and small variations in the weave are part of the product. The brand asks that you read the care instructions to keep the fiber in good condition, which means keeping the bag dry and out of direct sun.

When to carry COMAY

These bags are tagged for vacation, resort, honeymoon and daily use, and they are a popular Women's Day gift. A water hyacinth bag works with linen and cotton Dresses, with a matching co-ord set on holiday, and with a silk Ao Dai at family celebrations. The compact Bach Mon and Suong shapes suit dinners; the Stella Hoa Thi and Trang shapes carry a day's essentials.

How sturdy is a woven fiber bag?

Water hyacinth and lepironia grass are dried and tightly woven, so the body holds its shape well. The cow leather trim reinforces the stress points at the handles, and the canvas lining protects the inside. Avoid overloading the bag with heavy items and let it dry fully if it gets wet.

Which size should I choose?

Each product page lists the horizontal length, width, height and handle drop in centimeters. Check whether your phone and wallet fit flat before choosing the smaller shapes such as the Bach Mon or To bags.
