Reclaimed Hot Water Bottle Bag From The Bundeswehr

Who says recycled bags can’t look badass? That is exactly what you get with this rather unusual bag made from a reclaimed hot water bottle used during the 1960s by the “Bundeswehr” (Germany’s Federal Defense Force.)

Yes, the defense force!

But the recycling doesn’t end at the army water bottle serving as a flap. The body of the bag is made of recycled truck tarp.

The bag is handmade in Stuttgart, Germany and sells for $160.

Love it! I'm pretty sure I have a water bottle that looks really similar kicking around my house somewhere...
