Cute Collared Murses

These Stylish Upcycled Suit Totes Are Functional and Eco-Friendly

— October 21, 2011 — Eco
This upcycled suit tote is named Michael after the inept boss Michael Scott from the television show The Office. This kitschy little number was made by the good people at Poketo. Large enough to comfortably house a laptop and a slew of everyday miscellaneous doodads, this bag is not only stylishly eco-friendly, it is also incredibly functional.

Made using vintage suiting and cotton and silk shirts, this adorable bag is made entirely out of preloved items. The upcycled suit tote was made in conjunction with a South Korean non-profit program and all of the profits made from the sale of this bag will be directly donated to eco-awareness programs.

Now you can look fly and do your part for the environment at the same time with this endearing and wonderfully useful upcycled suit tote named Michael from Poketo.
