Kurzübersicht

A party bag

The Elvis & Kresse Post bag is made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK. A fun bag, perfect for day or night use, it is designed to be held in the hand, but it also has a detachable shoulder strap included for those that prefer, letting you easily transition from classic use to a contemporary crossbody. The Post Bag has an inside zip pocket and a reclaimed parachute silk lining.

What can you fit in there?

This is what Kresse carries: Phone, purse, book, keys, loose change, business cards, rail card, and refillable water bottle...

We are excited to be able to offer so many variations of the Post bag. Every option includes handles and trim in Elvis & Kresse's signature decommissioned fire-hose, which was previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK.

How to choose? There is our Classic Red, our Rare Yellow, and a Print Room edition, where the main body of the bag is made with re-engineered printing blanket. This matt black textile is strong and beautiful to the touch.

This piece is also available in Fire & Hide. What is that? The Fire, is our signature, decommissioned British fire-hose. The Hide is a transformation of fragments from the production of Burberry leather goods into luxurious components that we hand weave, piece by piece, into whole new hides. The Fire & Hide collection is the sumptuous blend of these two rescued materials. You can learn more about our leather partnership here.


The Fire-hose Collection

We fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose back in 2005 through a chance encounter with the London Fire Brigade. We took this lifesaving material home determined to breathe new life into it and save it from its otherwise inevitable end in landfill, and vowed to donate 50% of our profits to charity.

For over a decade we have been rescuing all of London's retired fire-hose by lovingly handcrafting them into sustainable luxury bags and accessories. Every year since, Elvis & Kresse have donated 50% of the profits from the Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.

Our Fire-hose pieces are more than just a collection, they represents a whole new kind of luxury. One that is sustainable, ethical, transparent, generous and kind.

Seit 2005 recyceln Elvis & Kresse Rohstoffe, verwandeln sie in luxuriöse Lifestyle-Accessoires und spenden die Hälfte ihres Gewinns für wohltätige Zwecke. Elvis & Kresse verwendet beispielsweise Lederreste von Burberry in Großbritannien, die sonst weggeworfen werden würden.

Fairer Handel: Elvis & Kresse-Taschen werden in England ethisch hergestellt. Sie zahlen ihren Mitarbeiter:innen einen Lohn über dem realen Existenzminimum. Das Label hat einen eigenen Produktionsstandort, der als Sozialunternehmen zertifiziert ist und die UK B Corporation gegründet hat.

Umweltfreundlich: Elvis & Kresse stellt Taschen aus wiederverwendetem Nischenmaterial her. Sie sammeln 15 verschiedene Abfallströme und verwenden sie wieder. Vom Feuerwehrschlauch über Lederabfälle bis hin zu Teesäcken. Die vollständige Liste findet ihr auf ihrer Website! Das Label reinigt auch ihr benutztes Wasser, denn sie haben ein vollständig zirkuläres Wasserreinigungssystem aufgebaut, damit kein Wasser den Standort verlässt. In ein paar Jahren hoffen sie, mit ihrem eigenen Wasser komplett autark zu sein. Alle Verpackungen werden von Hand in ihrer Werkstatt in Kent hergestellt (auch aus wiederverwendeten Materialien wie alten Drucktüchern und Fallschirmseide).

Lokal produziert: Die Kollektionen werden vollständig in England aus lokalen Materialien hergestellt.

Guter Zweck: Elvis & Kresse spenden 50 % ihres Gewinns an Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen. Ihre Wohltätigkeitspartner:innen sind die Fire Fighters Charity und das Barefoot College.
