Description

The JIP crossbody bag started as a festival banner. After hanging above crowds and stages, the material would usually be removed and discarded. Studio Fiep collects these banners and turns them into medium-sized crossbody bags made for everyday use.

With its slightly larger format, JIP fits your wallet, phone, keys and even a book. The waterproof banner material keeps your essentials protected when the weather changes. Inside, there’s a small pocket to keep valuables secure and easy to find.

Each bag is cut from a different section of a banner, which means every JIP has its own mix of colours and graphics. Small marks or variations may be visible. They are part of the material’s previous life and give each bag its own character.

If you’d like to learn more about how Studio Fiep works with festival waste and transforms it into everyday pieces, you can explore her full story via the maker page.

Who is this for

  • For people who like carrying a bit more without switching to a backpack.
  • For those who want a cool, colourful bag that stands out in the city, at work or at a festival.

Out of the ordinary

Each JIP bag is one of one. Colours, print fragments and small surface variations depend on the banner used. The structure stays consistent, but the look is always unique.
