As the globe is gripped by football fever, I think I may have found the perfect handbag for your World Cup parties. This cute soccer ball bag is actually made from a reclaimed ball.
While many eco activists shun the use of leather in fashion items, in this case I think we should all make an exception. Once a soccer ball pops it’s of no use to the player, so it’d simply end up in landfill if its German designers didn’t come to the rescue!
The recycled soccer ball body is complemented by an interior pocket made from a reclaimed trucking tarp. This is a green bag inside and out!
The soccer ball bags are sold by eco-friendly online store Branch, who is just as excited about them as we are.
“We loved these clever bags the minute we saw them,” a company spokesperson said. “Made from an actual used soccer ball which has been turned inside-out, each one is entirely unique and personal.“
The soccer ball bags are now on sale for $88 through Branch.
