About her:

Eriko Hamakawa was born and raised in Japan. In 2001, she moved to NYC to study accessories design. In 2005, fate brought her soul mate, Bobo into her life. She was a sassy little fluff who stole her heart instantly. She and Bobo were inseparable. Everywhere she went, Bobo was there with her. She had a bag that was great for Bobo, but it wasn’t IT for her. So, she searched and searched for the perfect bag that was safe and comfortable for Bobo, and something that was fun, chic and timeless.

In 2020, she founded ISSHO from the idea to end her mission in searching for THE dog bag that could be used everyday, while being in style. With her 15 years of background as an accessories designer in NYC, creating the ISSHO line with high fashioned materials & skilled craftsmanship at an equitable price was the natural next step in her journey.
