BUCKET BAG - Cactus Leather - Black - Stitches

BUCKETBAG

The Trashious bucket bag will carry all your essentials with the toss-it-in ease of a tote, but in a more tidy chic package. With enough space for all your treasures.

CACTUS LEATHER

This bag is made of leather made from cactus leaves.

Even overseas we found ‘green trash’. We discovered Mexico’s best kept secret ever! Years ago, 2 Mexican guys came up with the idea of using the Nopal cactus as raw material for the development of a sustainable alternative for animal and synthetic leather.

Nopal doesn’t need any water to grow. And there are plenty of these plants throughout Mexico. Nopal is used for the treatment of diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity and hangovers, but also as a food. The leafs of this plant have always been thrown away, but now they are used to make cactus leather. Produced without the intensive use of water and without any toxic chemicals, phthalates or PVC.

DESIGNED BY REBECCA CABAU

We are very proud to mention that Rebecca Cabau van Kasbergen has designed the bucketbag. We know her as a person who cares deeply about animals and the world.

FREE A GIRL

A part of the proceeds of the bucketbag will go to the foundation of her choice: FREE A GIRL, founded by her sister Yolanthe Cabau van Kasbergen. Free a girl strives for a world without sexual exploitation of children. A goal that Trashious also fully supports.

The Trashious story begins with the trash can. Not the best start for a fashion label you would think... On the contrary! The global garbage mountain is a huge problem that the label is all too aware of. That's why they joined the zero-waste movement. They have started the search for a sustainable, animal-friendly and circular alternative to the current animal and synthetic leather. They found 'green' waste, such as apples, cacti and pineapples that suited their needs!
