Handmade in Canada.
- Item ID: 20973
- Materials: reclaimed seat belts, airbag, reclaimed bike tubes
- 15.25" L x 1.25" W x 10.75" H. Strap: 60" L (adjustable) x 2" W

What a unique up-cycle.

Pluses: Made in North America, recycled, attractive
Wanda
the name of this tote reminds me of another airline bag -- hmmm a different moniker maybe? and how about a wee Canadian flag for "Made in Canada" ?

Nicely designed. But, I must say that I'm not a fan of light-colored bags... They soil too easily and the fact that the description says "spot clean" makes me nervous.

Good re-use of materials just too bad the materials are not colorful or attractive.
Susan
eh...kinda boring and confusing. Most guys won't carry a light blue bag yet the strap is very masculine. Who's the target market? Steep pricing too.

If only it cost less.

I consider myself an environmentalist and applaud any attempt at reusing products, however there are many more creative ways to be environmentally friendly these days than these obvious ways.

a light colored bag shouldn't be "spot clean" only. also, i know recycled stuff tends to be on the expensive side, but this just doesn't seem to be worth the price.

I agree with Elisa. A light colored bag shouldn't be spot clean only. Expensive to get dirty really fast.

I appreciate the recycled materials, but do not care for the light colors for traveling.

Really cute and clever, but too high of a price tag.

Like the idea of the bag being another recycled product; however the cost is ridiculous.

Very cute, love that it's upcycled. However, the light coloring makes it look far too feminine and is going to get very dirty very quickly for a "spot clean" item.

I really do like this bag, but for only half the price.

Cute but too expensive.

like the suggestion about putting a wee Canadian flag in it. Very creative use of recycled materials. Does it hold a laptop or iPad?

Thanks for all of the great feedback that's coming in for this light-weight, heavy-duty bag! To answer your questions, the colors are original to the airbags. The tote is not dyed, and it is large enough to hold a laptop. Thanks for asking!
