80% recycled materials, 20% new materials

By choosing the Jalan Crossbody Bag, you’re not just investing in functional design—you’re actively supporting ethical craftsmanship and helping to reduce global industrial waste.

Each piece is handcrafted using reclaimed army tents and upcycled inner tube rubber, giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. Due to the nature of these salvaged materials, no two bags are exactly alike—subtle variations in colour, texture, and markings add a distinctive character and tell a story of resilience and reinvention.

These unique imperfections are not flaws, but reminders of the material’s previous life. They are what make your bag truly one of a kind.
