The Day Bag
The Day Bag is designed for daily life, a versatile companion for work, errands, and everything in between. Made from reclaimed textiles, each tote features an original appliqué composition on the front, with abstract organic shapes that add depth and movement.
The bag balances functionality with artistry: a top metal zipper provides security, leather handles are secured with rivets for durability, and thoughtfully placed interior pockets keep essentials organized. Measuring 15" tall by 17" wide, the Day Bag is spacious yet structured, crafted to carry both practicality and personality.
Handmade in Vancouver, BC using deadstock and repurposed fabrics, each variation reflects a commitment to sustainability while celebrating bold textile design. Current appliqué editions include: Golden Hour, Balance, Lakeside, and Twilight.
