Description:

Large-sized weekend or sports bag made from recycled cement sacks

This round sports bag made from recycled cement sacks is unusual and fun. The material also makes it very strong and flexible at the same time. And that is very important for a weekend or sports bag.

Also very nice: each bag is unique. Therefore the bag you receive may differ slightly from the picture. However, the elephant, camel or tiger is always prominently featured.

Highlights
● Made from recycled cement sacks
● Strong & lightweight - 500 grams
● Splashproof & durable
● Dimensions: 55 x 27 x 27 cm - 40L. Also available in 31 L = Jumbo M
● Fully lined and zip pocket in the lining
● Strong handles and adjustable strap with shoulder pad
● Mesh pockets on both sides
● Closes with a secure, two-sided zip
● Each one is unique
● Fair made in Cambodia

Practical, strong and flexible
Because the material was first used for cement bags, this weekend bag can take a lot. The bag is waterproof and easy to clean with a damp cloth.

The inside is fully lined with black dirt repellant fabric and has a zip pocket and 2 pouches. On the sides of this sports bag you can find mesh pockets for a water bottle or small items. On the front a small zip pocket.

You carry the Jumbo in your hand with the two strong handles or on your shoulder with the adjustable  shoulder strap. This is equipped with a shoulder pad, so that the bag rests comfortably on your shoulder.

Also practical: the flexible material allows the shape of the bag to move with what you are carrying. You can also store the bag flat when you are not using it.

Fade through use
The prints may fade with intensive use. This is because the material is printed with a different purpose, namely to be used for cement bags. This means that they are not super durable. However, this gives the bags their charm.

Fair made in Cambodia
The bags are made in a social workshop in the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Phen. Here mainly disabled craftsmen work. In this way they strive to improve the living standards of people with disabilities. They also have the admirable mission to make Cambodia cleaner by using recycled materials in their creations.

Brand: MoreThanHip-cementbags

Bags and accessories made from recycled cement bags

The MoreThanHip Cement bags collection is made in Cambodia. The cement bags and the cement that was used in them originally come from Thailand. Cambodia imports a lot of building materials from Thailand, for the reconstruction of the country after the devastating years of oppression by the Khmer Rouge.

Fairly produced
These discarded cement bags have been discovered by local craftsmen as a material for making bags of all kinds, toilet bags and pencil cases. MoreThanHip's cement bag collection is made in a social workshop in the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Phen. Here, mainly disabled craftsmen work. In this way, the workshop strives to give people with disabilities a dignified place in society and to improve their standard of living.

Cleaning up the environment
The workshop also has the admirable mission of making Cambodia cleaner by using recycled materials in their creations. After all, litter is a big problem in countries like Cambodia and one of the causes of the plastic soup in the oceans.

Strong, light and waterproof
The material - woven plastic with a coating - from which the cement bag items are made was initially developed for cement bags. That means it has to be very strong, as a full bag of cement weighs 50 Kg. At the same time, it is very light, which contributes to the carrying comfort of a bag made of this material. The coating also makes it waterproof, which is of course a very nice feature for a bag.

Original and unique
Cement bags from different brands have been used for our collection, each with their own design. For example, we have articles with an elephant, a camel and an eagle. That alone makes for an original look. Moreover, no two items of a model are exactly the same, because different parts of a cement bag are used each time. This way you can be sure of a unique item.
