► The process of making each bag first starts with sourcing the materials. When a facility can not repair an inner tube, they donate it to Reclaimed Wreckage for recycling. I clean, disinfect, manufacture and draft each pattern for a completely unique finished product.

► I use as many reclaimed components as I can in each bag, including the linings, and any hardware used. Every bag is One-of-a-kind because of the vintage materials used. You may see small imperfections and wearing caused from the original material. This is part of the charm of the designs and adds to the fact that your bag has a history previous to you owning it! It's a great way to help to support sustainable approaches.

► Every bag is handmade by me, in my studio, in Salt Lake City, Utah :)
