Journey of your bag...






Thought you might be interested in finding out a little about the process the rubber goes through from sourcing the material to actually putting the product together.... The tubes are generally not as clean as they could be when I get them so they all get hosed down and thoroughly cleaned to start with. They are then cut into rolls of usable material in which the patterns are then drawn and cut out of. It's then a case of putting the pieces together and all the finishing details which go into making a Reclaim bag special.

Photo shoot for online shop launch...






So in light of preparing for the online shop launch, I felt it necessary to update the images on the website so the whole feel would be refreshing and new. With the help of Charlotte Summers, a brilliant photographer and the beautiful model Maria, this was possible. Also, it was the first official shoot for the new PVC and rubber bags. The shoot was on location rather than in a studio to give it more of a real life feel. It went well, even though it was freezing!! Have a look at some of my favourites on here, the rest will be up on the online shop in the next few days.
