TING London has caught our attention before with fun colorful cushions made from reclaimed seatbelts. But they’ve also found a stylish way to carry your green-minded side outside of the home. If you are looking for a chic new bag, with hidden eco-conscience then TING London’s ‘Orange Range’ seatbelt bags are an absolute must have.
Founded by Royal College of Art graduate Inghua Ting in 2000, TING London is a small company producing luxury luggage, belts, wallets and home accessories, all made from reclaimed leather and seat belts. TING’s already small carbon footprint, is offset with the help of growaforest.com who plant trees to counterbalance their CO2 emissions.
TING’s seatbelt bags are available for purchase through the company website, and these trendy bags are also stocked in outlets across Japan, Europe, UK and the U.S. The Velo Courier Bags will run you about £70.00, and the Scoot Satchel Bags £55.00.
