Mine's a Metropolitan

This is Elvis & Kresse's Metropolitan Bag: hard-wearing vintage fire-hose and hand-woven rescued Burberry leather are combined beautifully for every sophisticated urban adventure. The contemporary design means you can comfortably carry a 14/15" laptop and the bag has both an internal zip pocket and 2 easy-access poacher's pockets. The Metropolitan can be carried in hand and also comes with a detachable strap that enables it to be worn comfortably on the shoulder.

The Metropolitan Bag, part of our Fire & Hide Collection, is crafted through a transformation of leather fragments from the production of Burberry leather goods. Our craftsmen individually cut and hand weave, piece by piece, these otherwise lost scraps of leather into whole new hides. The Fire & Hide Collection is the sumptuous blend of our signature decommissioned fire-hose and rescued leather. The limited nature of our rescued materials means we can only ever create a few pieces in each variation. You can learn more about our leather partnership here.

Every option includes handles and trim in Elvis & Kresse's signature decommissioned fire-hose, which was previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires and saving lives around the UK.

The Fire & Hide Collection

In 2005 we fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose. Determined to save it from landfill we took this lifesaving material home, gave it a second chance, and vowed to donate 50% of the profits to the Fire Fighters Charity. But fire-hose was just the beginning.

Every year, 800,000 tonnes of leather ends up on the cutting room floor. Our leather partners cherish their hides, but no matter how carefully they cut their patterns, there will always be small seemingly unusable offcuts. To rescue this leather we developed a unique modular approach. We hand weave these fragments into whole new hides then lovingly recraft them into sustainable luxury bags and accessories. Our commitment to rescuing British fire-hoses remains the same, the trim, handles and internal detailing of the Fire & Hide range are all made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose. And we continue to donate 50% of profits to charity.

Our Fire & Hide Collection represents a whole new kind of luxury. One that is sustainable, ethical, transparent, generous and kind.

Over het merk

Sinds 2005 redden Elvis & Kresse grondstoffen en transformeren deze naar luxe lifestyle-accessoires. Zo gebruikt Elvis & Kresse bijvoorbeeld de leerresten van Burberry in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, materiaal dat anders afval zou zijn. 

Eerlijk geproduceerd: de tassen van Elvis & Kresse worden eerlijk gemaakt in Engeland. Zij betalen hun medewerkers een leefbaar loon. Het label heeft een eigen productielocatie en dit is een gecertificeerde sociale onderneming.

Milieuvriendelijk: Elvis & Kresse maakt tassen van gerecycled materiaal. Zij verzamelen 12 verschillende afvalstromen en hergebruiken ze. Van brandslang tot leerafval en theezakjes. De volledige lijst is te vinden op hun website! Het label zuivert hun eigen water en is bezig met het bouwen van een volledig circulair waterzuiveringssysteem zodat er geen water het terrein verlaat. Over een paar jaar hopen ze volledig zelfvoorzienend te zijn met hun eigen water. Alle verpakkingen worden met de hand gemaakt in hun werkplaats in Kent. Van gerecycled materiaal, zoals oude dekens en theezakjes. 

Lokaal geproduceerd: de collecties worden volledig lokaal gemaakt in Engeland, ook van lokale materialen. 

Goed doel: Elvis & Kresse doneert 50% van hun winst aan goede doelen, zoals de Fire Fighters Charity en Barefoot College.
