When it comes to upcycling, there’s no telling which things will spark a creative idea. For Daniel and Markus
FREITAG, it was truck tarpaulins. Yep, you read that right. After a trip to India turned the brothers on to more sustainable lifestyle, the pair launched their namesake label, creating a plethora of bags – just like this one – that are made from tarp. Even the strap of this iteration is recycled, pieced together from pre-used safety belts. Cool, right? (Height 17cm, width 31cm, depth 9cm)
