According to the Japan Bag Association’s Randoseru Industry Department, in 2022 the average cost of a randoseru was 56,000 yen. That’s an increase of nearly 20,000 yen compared to 10 years ago, and prices are likely to continue to climb for 2023 as inflation and a weak yen contribute to rising materials costs, especially for the leather and metal fittings, which are likely to be at least partially passed on to consumers.

So to help ease the burden, Osaka-based randoseru distributor Kokuho has introduced what it says is Japan’s first randoseru rental/subscription service, which it calls RandS.
