The Subtraction is the remains, the leftovers of the fabric making process. In the industry, subtraction is the thread used to finish or to join the different parts that will make up the final piece of fabric. Once this process is completed, the remainder is discarded. This bag aims to turn around the convention that which materials are noble and which are the rest.

In 2012, Olya Dubovik created Lubochka, a brand of bags and accessories. A few years later, she decided to leave Barcelona with her family and move to the countryside, surrounded by nature. From this personal change, the need arises to rethink the brand's approach and turn it into something much more personal and sincere. Olya decides to return to the roots of trading. It focuses on a design committed to time, creating pieces that are as functional as they are durable. They look at the past, the present and the future, all at once.

Manufacturing the parts requires technical knowledge, time and patience. These values ​​comprise a modus vivendi that aims to create objects for reasonable consumption and the moderate use of raw materials. Human craftsmanship prevails over automation and, at the same time, maintains a harmonious relationship with mechanized and innovative processes.

Maintenance and care:

Wash the piece on a short delicate cycle, without mixing it with other clothes. Then stretch it so that it recovers its shape while it dries. The skin will return to its original appearance once dry. The leather has a vegetable tanned finish but does not leave stains when washed. It hardens somewhat at first but with use it regains its feel.

Approximate composition: 40% cotton, 40% viscose, 20% polyester and vegetable tanned leather.

Dimensions: 30 x 35 cm bag - 30-40 cm handles.
