Full description

This zippered bag is handmade by me from punctured bicycle inner tubes. It's great storing or otherwise keeping track of small items: diy or crafting tools, dice for ttrpg players, makeup, etc.

This bag features a secondhand metal zip with darn green zip tape and silver-coloured teeth. The mixed-fibre lining is maroon with white dots.

It's being sold at a discount as it was a prototype to work out the current style of how I make bags. I've also stopped using secondhand zips as they look wobbly when reused.

Check out the gallery for more images including measurements. See my shop for more listings.

Inner tube is a resilient flexible material and can be scrunched up without damaging it.

Each item is unique, featuring different wear and character from its previous life inside a bike tyre. I don't consider these marks, writing, wear, texture, etc faults - they make every piece one of a kind!

The tubes are sourced from local bike shops. They'd normally end up in landfill as most people wouldn't pay a mechanic's time to do a puncture repair - instead a new one's fitted and the old one discarded. These have been saved from that fate, helping the bike shops reduce its waste and keeping useful materials out of landfill.

It'll be sent with one of my business cards and a slip with information about my business and looking after your bag. I ship everything in plastic-free packaging. It'll be sent flat to save you money on postage.

While all inner tubes are washed thoroughly before being remade into new products, they may still mark light surfaces.
