Can it get any better?! Our strong and sturdy canvas tote, paired with reused denim from old, authentic jeans. Our Denim collection comes in all sizes, however stock is extremely limited so some are destined to run out faster than others. The collection is divided into 4 general colors; Dark, Medium and Light Indigo and Black Denim. However, given their history as worn garments, vast color variations are to be expected. Likewise there will be great variations in the presence of seams, tear and wear, as this varies with each unique bag. Consequently, what your exact bag will look like, will have to come as a great surprise!
The Story behind the Tote Stories "Denim Project"!
Tote Stories founder Lisa has always kept old jeans, certain that one day, they would come to new use. Denim garments may be used up, but the denim fabric has the potential to live forever!
Lisa's collection was expanded through friends, family and customers, who donated old, worn-out, grown-out, out-of-fashion denim jeans for our dream project - a unique tote bag collection! Jeans were cut free from brand markings, numbered and measured to calculate which style we could make, optimizing fabric use.
Our amazing factory workers then put their magic into production, taking great care salvaging all fabric ... 1 pair of jeans makes 1 tote bag and scraps are used for matching pouches, leaving as little as possible for final recycling.
Welcome to our Reused Denim Tote bag collection. All totes are numbered and contributors have been offered to buy back one of their own pair of jeans with a discount. We hope you will love them as much as us and we ask you to please help in keeping our Denim project going by donating when you can. Jeans, skirts, shorts in all shades and sizes. Wear and tear don’t matter!
So here is to Denim, the most classic material in fashion, the essential in every wardrobe no matter age, gender or style, the forever fabric of choice - For Life!
