UPCYCLED TIRE PURSE

A customer favorite, this unique upcycled tire purse is just right for those days when you want a smaller bag. The inside of this purse is divided in two and it has a zipper pocket and a phone pocket. The bag has a front flap with a magnetic snap closure and a long adjustable shoulder strap. These recycled rubber tire bags are hand stitched by paraplegics with spinal injuries who are undergoing rehabilitation in Banepa, Nepal. Besides giving the makers some self sufficiency, the skills gained enable them to seek outside employment on leaving the rehab facility. Rubber truck tubes are collected from area garages, cleaned and recycled into a variety of bags, thus keeping the rubber from being burned or dumped. Each brass buckle is hand crafted by other spinal injury victims being treated at a neighboring facility.
