Greater Goods is an upcycling brand based in London and it recently launched a lookbook to show off its new collection of side bag designs. Every design is sustainably made to the brand's standards, using surplus materials from different brands in efforts to reduce overall fashion waste.
Previously, the brand has used materials from The North Face and army pieces to make tote bags and bottle bags. This time, the focus spotlights canvas and GORE-TEX materials that were damages or incorporated on a piece of outerwear. All of the materials used to make the side bags have been used before, which creates a unique textural finish and patina depending on the source. This gives each design a unique look to its own depending on the details, the colors, silhouettes, and sizes.
