"Tireless" Designs

RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. This product was made by hand. Click icon for more information. Yes, these cutting-edge bags are actually made of recycled tires - real retreads, rescued form the tires of trucks and tractors from a landfill. So if you're a conscientious consumer, then these purses are an absolute must - the ne plus ultra of recycled goods. The "Mini" (right) is accented with Army Green twill tape handles, decorative cutouts, and metal grommets, while the larger "Model T" (left) comes with actual seat belts for handles and three outer snaps for added security. The "Model T" also features an inside security pocket. Buy two, because everybody needs to have a spare tire! Made in Colorado. Designed by Heather English.

Comments about RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES:

Wonderful purse. Never seen anyone with one like it. It's durable, easy to clean, big enough for the basics, but too small to overpack.

I did an internet search 2 find these recycled tire purses after reading about them. This is a sturdy tote, albeit smaller than i had imagined for the price point..definitely not a value item but its GREEN-ness earns points!

Comments about RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES:

This bag is very cute however it is very small. I was going to take it to school but in reality, i think all it could fit was my wallet, calculator, and pencil. It also has no pockets and only a single button to close the purse which does little good.

Comments about RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES:

My doctor advised me to get a smaller purse so i am not carrying as much in it. This was the only one that i wanted, and it's awesome. With only one snap closure, i am not tempted to put a bunch of stuff that could slip out of it, but even at that, nothing ever has. From the moment i saw this, i HAD to have it; and it seems VERY durable, so i'll be using it for a long time to come.

This purse is perfect for daily city life - stylish, practical, and made of recycled materials! It has one small inner pocket and has room for everything you need without being bulky. The straps are just long enough to fit over your shoulder, so the purse stays tucked beneath your arm.

Comments about RECYCLED RUBBER PURSES:

I'm not too sure about this product. I was very excited when I saw it online, but was disappointed when it came in the mail. I have a tire satchel that I bought years ago from another company that is made 10 times nicer and can hold anything. This purse looks cool, but isn't made as sturdy as I would have liked. It's very thin rubber. :( For what I paid for it, I expected something of better quality.
