MU:DS x Joseph & Stacey - Lee Soon-shin Turtle Ship Pleats Bag (Medium)
Experience the perfect blend of modern utility and profound history with the Medium Pleats Bag, a limited edition collaboration between Joseph & Stacey and MU:DS (National Museum of Korea).
Released to honor the National Museum of Korea's 80th Anniversary of Liberation Special Exhibition: "Our Lee Soon-shin," this piece reimagines the legacy of Admiral Yi Sun-sin through contemporary design. The bag features a unique pattern inspired by the hexagonal dorsal scales of the Geobukseon (Turtle Ship), as depicted in the historic Sugunjoryeondo (Naval Training Map).
The Medium size offers a generous silhouette, transforming the sturdy yet elegant curves of the Turtle Ship into a spacious daily companion. The pattern symbolizes the Admiral’s "unwavering will," offering a sense of protection and courage to the wearer.
Crafted with Joseph & Stacey’s signature biodegradable knit technique, the bag is lightweight, flexible, and sustainable. The fabric expands effortlessly to hold your essentials—from tablets to daily necessities—while the wider strap ensures a comfortable shoulder fit. When not in use, it folds neatly into a compact form, making it an ideal travel companion.
Available in a serene Sky Blue or a commanding Navy, this bag is a sophisticated statement piece that carries the weight of history with a featherlight touch.

💡 Care Instructions
· Dry Cleaning Recommended: To preserve the pleats and fabric texture, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended.
· Handle with Care: The knit weave is delicate; avoid contact with sharp objects, jewelry, or rough surfaces that may snag the thread.
· Heat Sensitivity: Do not iron or apply direct heat (such as hot water washing), as this will damage the permanent pleats and synthetic fibers.
