Colombian brand Cyclus is redefining what is possible with recycled tires with its new chic eco-friendly handbag collection.
These handbags have such quirky shapes and styles, you almost forget that they’re eco-friendly options. It’s rare to see a green fashion house pushing the envelope to this degree, and I commend them for it.
I particularly like the purses from the Pangolin collection, which appear just like the scaly anteater with their recycled tire plates. The range also features cute handbags designed for a girls’ night out, and active accessories to fit on to your pushbike. How wonderful to see recycled tire accessories reunited with their original sources like that!
I love the designs, which are so different from any eco-friendly handbags I’ve seen before. They’re not really on trend, but I think there’s something appealing about wearing a bag that’s unlike the others, don’t you?
The eco-friendly Cyclus bags are available online, but you’ll probably need to know a bit of Spanish to easily get around the website.
