Bag brand goes vego with new range
Melbourne bagware brand Crumpler is introducing a new veggie leather collection, adding to the range of sustainable products that are available in the market.
The Elemental range has been created ethically using a weather resistant veggie leather made from 100 per cent recycled polyester Ecoya fibre, which makes the bags very easy to clean.
“It has been our main focus to continually introduce new fabrics that provide variety with a tactile experience in stores, but most importantly are consciously produced,” says Valeria Fioretti, head of design at Crumpler.
“The Elemental range is engineered for a sleek look. The smooth fabric―that we ironically call ‘veggie leather’ for its great eco-friendly features―will pass the Crumpler test of time and still remain a top pick for effortless style and comfort.”
A new colour ‘flint’ has been added to the existing ‘black’ to create a nine piece collection in-store and online in time for the gifting season. The range includes the Sprout Backpack, Kernel and Clove Cross Body Bag, Bean Messenger Bag and Tate Tote Bag.
The Conversion range features four new designs including the Dynamo cross body bag, Chronicler Plus & Chronicler Messenger bags and the Abacus Backpack.
Crumpler’s eco-friendly Conversion collection is made up of seven metric tonnes of polyester scrap and off-cuts, offering a more conscious carrying solution for Australians on the go.
Both ranges are available now.
