Remember those classic styrofoam boxes that carried your nasi lemak, sweet sour chicken, or chap fan lunches?
Well, Singaporean company wheniwasfour has officially turned that nostalgia into fashion with the Cai Png Dabao Bag, and it's as extra as it sounds.
Priced at RM117, this playful yet functional bag comes with a free strap of your choice
There are seven colour strap options to mix, match, or ditch altogether for a strap-free clutch vibe.
It's big enough to hold your phone, wallet, earphones, lip gloss… heck, even a mini portable fan for those "it's too hot, I might melt" days. Basically, it's the perfect bag for tapau-ing your life in style.
Inside, there's a neat compartment slot for your phone, so you won't be digging around like a frantic person.
Made from polypropylene on the outside and PU leather on the inside, it measures 21cm × 16cm × 7.5cm with a strap that stretches up to 1.3m. Cute, compact, and surprisingly practical — go on, tell me that isn't winning at adulting.
This isn't the first time wheniwasfour has tapped into our collective Asian nostalgia
From canned mushroom necklaces to ikat tepi-inspired bags and White Rabbit plush toys, the brand knows how to turn quirky childhood memories into fun, functional fashion pieces you can actually use… or just show off.
Check out their shop at Bras Basah Complex in Singapore or online.
