Florence Tote Bag

In Kenya we turn disposable materials into beautiful and useful items, such as this perfect shopping bag named after Florence, one of our artisans. This oversized tote bag is practical, waterproof and excellent to hold personal items, even your laptop. The straps were carefully measured and cut to make you feel comfortable even on those days when you have to carry more weight. We also love the cool aesthetic brought by the recycled cement bags.

Project Três is an initiative to promote the economic development of women in India, Kenya and Bangladesh with beautiful, artistic items.

Fair trade: Project Três produces in India, Bangladesh and Kenya. All items are made fair trade and some from upcycled materials. As Project Três is not just a brand, but a non-profit organization, they don't only pay fair wages, but also provide their entire team (legal) support in case of abuse, violence, divorce, healthcare, education and financial assistance in case of crisis. Project Três' t-shirt supplier is GOTS certified, which also means good working conditions.

Environmentally friendly: Project Três works with organic cotton, upcycled materials from beads to fabrics and sustainable Aloe Vera fibres. The dyeing process in India and Bangladesh is natural and free from toxic substances.

Good cause: Project Três looks at what their employees need in terms of development and support. Their main concern is to make women and their children more independent. Here you can see exactly what Project Três has achieved with their initiative!
