A nod to the striped awnings of provision shops once found under every HDB void deck in Singapore, and the carryalls used by ladies at the wet market, this smaller horizontal tote distils that everyday utility into a more compact, considered form.
Crafted in India from 100 percent recycled woven nylon derived from industrial gunny sacks, the material is transformed into colourful threads and woven into resilient fabric. The lower, wider silhouette offers structure without bulk, making it ideal for daily essentials, lunch boxes, small market runs or light office carry.
Its zip top closure keeps contents secure, while thick shoulder straps sit comfortably on the shoulder. Compact yet capable, it holds what you need without encouraging excess.
Each piece is cut from a continuous roll of fabric, so stripe placement and handle colour will vary. Subtle irregular stitching reflects its utilitarian roots and forms part of its character.
Modernised for contemporary pace, it is built for everyday rhythm rather than heavy loads. Functional, lightweight and easy to carry.
