This sleek and robust weekend bag is crafted from upcycled tyre tubes, offering a unique and durable solution for your travel or gym needs. The comfortable handles are made from cotton, ensuring ease of carrying.
Each bag is handmade and fair trade, produced by Green The Map in Delhi. This organisation works directly with waste collectors and scrap dealers across the city, transforming discarded materials like tyre tubes, juice cartons, milk packets, beer cans, and chips packets into new accessories, stationery, and home décor items. Their approach ensures nothing is wasted, giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfill.
A core principle of Green The Map, the maker for So Just Shop, is to create meaningful employment opportunities for individuals from marginalised sections of society. They actively involve these communities in various aspects of their business, from production to sales and other operational roles, fostering economic independence and sustainable community development.
