Description

The ‘Omvouwen’ shoulder bag is organised, compact and ready for daily use. Its shape is clean and structured, with a magnetic closure that makes opening and closing smooth and practical.

The bag is cut from retired fire hoses and shaped by hand. The material keeps its natural texture and subtle markings, giving the surface depth without adding decoration. Strong yet refined, it holds its form while staying comfortable to carry.

Inside, a small pocket helps you keep essentials separated. The adjustable 2 cm shoulder strap makes it easy to wear crossbody or over one shoulder.

Each piece shows slight variations in surface and structure due to the nature of the fire hose material. That’s part of what gives every Omvouwen its own character.

Who is this for

• For people who like a clean, organised bag with strong material presence
• For those who appreciate carrying something with a real origin and a story behind it

Out of the ordinary

Because every bag is made from a different section of fire hose, texture and markings vary slightly per piece.
