Trucks are tough. Which is why all FREITAG products are tough, and made to last for years to come. They are also each uniquely designed and follow no trends

Freitag first made bags entirely from used truck tarps, discarded bicycle inner tubes and car seat belts. Each of their bags are recycled and unique because of the variety that comes with using upcycled materials. Since then, they have continued to use upcycled truck tarps in their bags, while also incorporating recycled PET and natural fibers to their bags

Small multi-use city backpack with love handles, adjustable shoulder straps, inner compartments and a zippered outer pocket.

Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products of better quality and environmental value. 

Upcycling artists are inspired by the textile waste they see, which is almost an unlimited resource at this point. They create with the intention to use what is already here. This process is important in the circular fashion movement, because it makes use of discarded textiles, giving these materials second lives. 

Because discarded textiles are not typically sheets of fabric, but rather articles of discarded clothing, a lot of creativity is required to transform materials into new fashionable pieces. This challenge is exciting for upcycling artists, as they are driven and inspired to create with what is in front of them and often don’t have much to lose in the process, since discarded materials are readily available and cheap. Because of this, upcycled clothing is often unique as each piece has been thoughtfully crafted into a new garment.

This product is made by creatively upcycling materials that would otherwise go to waste. This makes better use of resources like deadstock fabrics: leftovers from big production that are saved by re-using them.
