I looked into raw materials and discovered an opportunity to use upcylced manufacturing material that would otherwise be discarded into the landfills. My personal mission was for each piece in the collection to use 100% upcycled material
MINI DUFFLE
A duffle bag that is intentially mini. The inner storage volume is uncompromissed. The barrel design and large top zipper holds a full hooded sweater at L14” x H 7” comfortably. The handles and additional storage bag are made with 100% post consumer water bottles and body is made with upcycled deadstock material.
The mini duffle bag is designed with a durable outer material that is water resistant and practical for outdoor use. Designed with fully accessable front and side pockets for smaller accessories with reflective piping throughout for low-light visability. This minimal safety design affords the user to be seen in unpredictable environments.
BACKPACK
A backpack designed for quick access. Fastened with magnetic locking mechinisms to unsure fast and easy retrieval of items. Lined with reflective piping on the main compartment surface to increase visibilty in low-light surroundings.
