HOORAI Potluck Hobo Bag

The materials of your bag may exhibit some of the characteristics mentioned above (uneven stitches, clipped fabric, wrinkles, and small marks) due to the nature of upcycled material. These are NOT defects but natural aspects of an upcycled product.

ONLY ONE & ONLY

This is what makes each and every piece of our HOORAI bag unique. Just like our fingerprints, each material tells the story of the life cycle it underwent before being (cleaned and) repurposed into our HOORAI Bag! Therefore, please note that there is no 'second piece' with the same graphic design.

In our commitment to the Upcycling 1.0 Project's goal of minimizing waste while maintaining our aesthetic and playful appeal, we have made significant changes to our packaging for the bags.

Upon realizing that many of our additional packaging materials were ending up as waste (such as product tags, care manual leaflets, and paper stuffing), we made the following decisions:

- Instead of printing separate product tags, we have designed product labels and attached them to the back pocket of each bag.

- Our bags will now be placed inside our branded dust bags, eliminating the need for additional large boxes.

You may ask, then shouldn't the bag be priced lower with less packaging materials? We hear you! Firstly, upcycled materials actually cost more than virgin materials (still). Then after covering production costs & team expenses, any extra savings were spent covering the costs of sending leftover materials (as we were unable to utilize 100% of all materials 😢) to recycling centers and local art institutions.

From the very first meeting with the team of CUECLYP, rough sketches of ideas, testing out our waste materials, and so on.
