Upcycled Backpack - Made from a Life Jacket & Plastic Offcuts

This unique smaller backpack is crafted from a repurposed life jacket and plastic-based fabric offcuts—materials that are notoriously difficult to recycle. Each bag is truly special, as life jackets are cut and stitched together to create larger fabric panels, resulting in one-of-a-kind designs. I’ve also tried to preserve as many original features from the life jackets as possible, such as the original reflector on this bag.

Key Features:

  • A small front pocket measuring 6 1/4" x 5 3/4"
  • Fold-down top with a plastic clip closure
  • Easy-carry handle and adjustable backpack straps (up to 35")
  • Webbing strap secured by a keeper made from a punctured inner tube
  • Perfect for storing your essentials for walks and more!

Dimensions:

  • Closed: 13 1/2” high and 10” wide, tapering to 6” at the base
  • Fully unfolded: 19” high
  • Boxy, roomy base that tapers towards the top

Please Note:
As the materials are repurposed, there may be visible signs of wear or markings, particularly on the yellow sections of the bag. This adds to the character and uniqueness of the product. While some of the fabric is waterproof, the bag itself is not guaranteed to be due to the stitching. The bag may also have an organic, slightly irregular shape due to the nature of the material.

Although we strive to upcycle as much as possible, some components such as zips and webbing straps may be new if repurposed options aren't available. This item may contain PVC and is not suitable for children—for adults only.
