Upcycled Handcrafted Patched Denim & Felt Jeans Travel Backpack

Each pair of jeans, consumes over 10,000 liters of water during growing cotton and during the manufacturing process, and also other resources including chemicals in abundance. Upcycling of this bag has resulted in indirect saving of all these resources.

Disclaimer: Every dwij Backpack is unique! Thus, the Backpack delivered to you may have different shades of blue, however the pattern remains the same

• About your dwij bag

  “Your bag is a result of our focus on making long-lasting products”

  A patched design is one of the most classic designs of upcycled work. Depending on the color combinations, patchwork can produce one of the most elegant designs. With the backpack, we have used this idea to handcraft a beautiful and unique-looking backpack for your all-purpose use.

  The material for this bag comes from at least 8-10 different pairs of post-consumer jeans, and post-industrial denim. The geometrical shaped boxes originate from our zero waste practices i.e. this is the second smallest shape that can originate after the material for a few other designs have already been cut out from the jeans trouser. Once they are joined together, the rest of the backpack requires more skill to give shape, which is done by our experienced craftsmen. The bag contains 2 compartments and an inner separation for a laptop, with an easy-to-access outside compartment. The bag has an inner lining of ‘recycled felt’ material to minimize the impact of water absorption by denim material during accidental spillage or light rains.

  To take care of the hygiene requirements, all the material that enters our workshop is industrially washed in a rigorous manner. In addition, our production process also ensures that the bag looks fresh and equivalent to a virgin product.

  Ideal usage: All-purpose bag for casual use, outdoor trip, travel, gym etc.
