Doublet, the label led by Masayuki Ino, released the Emoji Leather Bag on November 9 as part of its fall/winter 2026 collection. It is a cowhide leather tote topped with a sculpted, three-dimensional emoji face.

The faces come in three versions: crying-laughing, pleading, and a green vomiting face. Pairing something cute with something a little gross is a typical doublet move, turning an everyday object into a joke. Each emoji is listed as its own product on the brand's online store.

The bag has a detachable shoulder strap, so it works as a hand-carried tote or worn on the shoulder. It comes in two colors, camel and black.

The price is ¥137,500, about $860. It is sold through the doublet online store and select retailers in Japan. The online store offers English and Simplified Chinese, and its shipping estimator lists the United States among its destinations, which gives New Yorkers a way to order from abroad.

The release sits within the brand's "AIR" fall/winter 2026 collection, which also includes a gas mask leather handbag and moon walk leather pants. Of those pieces, the emoji tote is the one whose joke reads at a glance.
