Truce, the handmade bag division of Trew, created a line of bags using upcyled and recycled materials for the enjoyment of bag aficionados.
Teaming up with Slingshot Sports, the Truce x Slingshot bags reuse prototype kitesurf materials that would otherwise have to be discarded. Recycling this ultra-lightweight material keeps it out of landfills.
Truce’s used-to-be neighbors, Slingshot, knew of its recycle/upcycle efforts and offered the material. Luke Mathers, original Truce mastermind and amateur kiter, then turned each piece into original Drop Liner Packs and Shoppers and at its Portland retail store to see the full collection, which also includes Dopp Kits and a Shoulder Bag.
