Description

A fusion of innovation and understated elegance, this Crossbody Bag is crafted from an unexpected mix of repurposed materials, each with its own story. Designed for versatility, it features a long, adjustable, and detachable shoulder strap, allowing you to wear it your way—whether as a statement evening piece or an everyday essential.

The body of the bag is crafted from an upcycled illuminated pool noodle, bike inner tubes, and felt outdoor cushion material, with the back side of the fabric intentionally showcased for a refined texture. The shoulder strap and accent zipper opening are made from light blue vinyl upholstery offcuts, sourced from the newly upholstered seating in our local party buses—a lucky find that now brings a playful yet polished touch to this design.

High-quality black gunmetal zippers from Australia ensure durability, while a matte black bat zipper pull ties into the bag’s theme—an evening accessory with a subtle nod to the nocturnal world. Functional yet sophisticated, the bag features a front pocket with a flap closure and magnetic snap, which also creates an additional hidden pocket on the back.

Our signature Circle logo tag, made from mahogany offcuts salvaged from local ukulele crafting, adds a final artisanal touch. Inside, a zippered pocket provides extra storage, and gunmetal rivets and clasps complete the design. The detachable strap offers added versatility, making this bag as practical as it is stylish.

Soft yet durable, the materials are easy to maintain—simply wipe clean with a damp cloth. Whether for an elegant evening out or as a distinctive everyday piece, this one-of-a-kind bag is designed to stand out in every setting.
