These amulets are a collaboration with “Septoire,” an Ashiya-based tweed bag brand. Each one is handmade and has its own unique appearance.
They will reportedly be available in limited quantities starting on the 15th of every month, with a different theme color each month. July’s collection will feature mainly summery shades of blue and will be limited to 30 amulets. Sales will end once they are sold out, and purchases are limited to two per person.
The initial offering fee is ¥2,000 for a Shiki Mamori and ¥500 for an inner charm. You can apparently choose from five different types of blessings.

In Closing
The soft, fluffy texture of the tweed fabric is incredibly cute—I definitely want one! The selection seems to change every month, so if you’re interested, be sure to check it out on the 15th. Quantities are limited, so don’t wait too long〜
