Lam Yeo Coffee Powder has been at this location since 1960, filling many kopitiam socks across the island for generations. I was on Balestier looking for inspiration when the scent hit me like a freight train. I hope to capture the history that goes along with their original golden signboard still hanging overhead.

Super functional with a 20×21cm enclosed zip pocket. Heavy canvas with an overall size 48×37cm. The image rides high on the bag so it doesn’t roll under when it’s carrying a load. Comfortable 10”/25cm strap hang.

Look for my boy, the Dark Prince Tatsu, on the label; if he isn’t there it isn’t the real thing. Support original Singapore arts to get more original Singapore arts.
