Kikooni Travel Bag “Oh Leo Sunset” – weekender made of hand-printed cotton
Coral red with black and ochre-yellow leopard spots, ochre tassels on the outer pocket. The travel bag “Oh Leo Sunset” holds what you need for a few days away and hangs on the handle of your wheeled suitcase via its trolley loop.
The bag is made for the Munich label Kikooni in a small workshop in Jaipur, India. It is printed by hand – according to Kikooni with wooden blocks (block print) or by screen printing, using natural, azo-free dyes. Outer fabric and lining are cotton, which keeps the bag light and flexible.
Carry it by the two handles or on the removable, adjustable shoulder strap, also crossbody. The main compartment with inner pocket closes with a zip, plus two outer pockets, one of them with a zip – handy for passport or wallet. A trolley loop slides over the telescopic handle of a wheeled suitcase. According to Kikooni, clothes for a few days, a large bath towel, trainers and a laptop fit inside.
As every piece is printed by hand, the pattern sits slightly differently on each bag than in the pictures. Items shown as decoration in some pictures are not included.

On the road and travelling
At approx. 45 × 33 × 16.5 cm, the bag is cabin-baggage size according to Kikooni. However, each airline sets its own permitted dimensions; checking the baggage rules before the flight gives you certainty.
If you don't want to miss freshly ground coffee on the road, pack a hand grinder and a brewer: for example a grinder from our hand grinders by Comandante or Timemore and an AeroPress. You'll find more designs among our Kikooni bags.
Care
Kikooni recommends a maximum of 30 °C on a delicate cycle, with the bag turned inside out and in a laundry bag, using a mild detergent without bleach, enzymes or optical brighteners. Add a colour catcher sheet to the first wash, as the natural dyes may still release some pigment. Check the method on an inconspicuous spot first, then let the bag air-dry, ideally in the shade. No tumble dryer.

Tip from the roastery: For a few days away, we like to pack a bag of Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight, both full-bodied and dense. For those who like it even stronger: Very Nutty. That's our recommendation – one of many.
