To reduce waste and make better use of our materials, we produced a limited run of tote bags using leftover selvedge denim fabrics from previous productions. Instead of letting these fabrics go unused, we selected four different denims and gave them a new purpose. Because each tote is made from one of these fabrics, every bag carries its own unique denim character, making each piece slightly different from the next.
All tote bags share the same design. One side is printed with the main BENZAK logo, while the other side features the BENZAK sportswear logo, both in white print. The handles are lined with leftover 100% cotton fabric, allowing us to utilise even more materials that would otherwise go to waste.
For this project, we used four different selvedge denim fabrics ranging from 11 oz. to 18.5 oz. in weight. The fabrics were originally woven in Japan or Italy and come in unwashed, raw form. They are sanforized, and depending on the fabric used, the composition is either 100% cotton or a cotton–hemp blend, all constructed in a right hand twill.
Since multiple fabrics were used, the exact denim of your tote bag will be selected at random. As this is a limited production using leftover materials, once sold out, it will not be restocked.
