Kellogg's Vector wants to help Canadians celebrate the return of recreational sports with Off The Couch Bags, a line of five one-of-a-kind, limited-edition sports bags that are "made from the couches we've been stuck on for so long." These unique bags are handcrafted in Canada and made from actual pre-loved couches purchased from a community-focused charitable organization.
These bags are designed for the country's favorite sports and the lineup includes The Socctional soccer bag,
The 40-Loveseat, The Ol' Leather for baseball, The Chestpressterfield for toting to the gym and The Slapshottoman for hockey players. Steve Persico, Co-Chief Creative Officer at Leo Burnett Toronto, says "Ripping up the couches we've been stuck on and turning them into sports bags is a symbol of turning our pent-up energy into something positive as we finally get back in the game."
