Description: Elvis & Kresse Weekend Bag Red Decommissioned Fire Hose and Printing Blanket - Sustainable, Vegan The future of luxury is sustainable, ethical, reclaimed, open, generous and kind. Elvis & Kresse was established in 2005 to save London's decommissioned fire-hose, ones that had become too damaged to repair and were going to landfill. Elvis & Kresse fell in love with these brave retired fire-hoses and mounted a rescue. Today, Elvis & Kresse's highly skilled craftspeople make beautifully designed bags and homeware from 15 different reclaimed materials. The Elvis & Kresse Weekend Bag is handmade from genuine decommissioned fire-hose and the lining is made from material rescued from Burberry's Yorkshire workshop and reclaimed military-grade parachute silk. A few select pieces will come with lining made from auction banners that we save from landfill. Each weekend bag is totally unique, no two Elvis & Kresse pieces are ever the same. Previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK, the hard-wearing hose is perfectly suited for your travels. The wide mouth opening of our holdall makes packing, unpacking and searching very easy and the generous sizing means you can take everything you need for a weekend away. The weekend bag has an easy access external pocket, an internal zip pocket and 3 further internal poacher-style pockets. Our fire-hose Weekend Bag is now recognized as a true icon, one of these pieces in red hose is now part of the permanent collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A).Exterior: genuine decommissioned British red fire-hose and reclaimed printing blanketLining: Reclaimed military-grade parachute silk and rescued Burberry textiles or rarer reclaimed auction banner.Adjustable shaped and padded shoulder strap in genuine decommissioned British fire-hoseIconic design - Held as part of the permanent collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum Internal zip pocketThree internal poacher-style pocketsQuick access external pocketReinforced stress pointsEtched Elvis & Kresse logoHandmade with hand-painted and bound edgesWater resistant, Wipe-cleanVegan Dimensions: H 28 x W 55 x D 27 cmHandle Drop: 35 cmVolume: 42 liters
