Recycled Designer Handbags

“Going Green” is a popular theme as many are trying to reduce their carbon footprint.  I’m sure you have heard Reduce, Reuse, Recycle from the time you were in grade school.  I love when I can find new ways to reuse something and that is just what Angela and Ken of Passchal bags have done.  To date, they have recycled 32 tons of inner tubes!

Angela and Ken first thought of the idea when she bought a backpack made out of tractor tire inner tubes. They decided to take on the challenge of converting used tires into high-end luxury items.

 Of course, celebrities are interested in these handbags because they are high-end luxury meets “green”. Just some of the celebrities who have Passchal handbags are Susan Sarandon, AnnaLynn McCord, Kristin Chenowith and Alicia Coppola.

Not only is Passchal an eco-friendly company, they are giving back as well.  Some of the organizations they have donated to are: Habitat for Humanity, Easter Seals and the Tibetan Aid Project.

You can check out their full line of women’s handbags, men’s bags and wallets at www.passchal.com and they range from $55 to $500+
