Being an avid mountain biker for years, there was always piles of old inner tubes in my basement. So in 1996 the first inner tube was cut, instead of patched… and with some old rain pants for material, I made the first Flat Bag.

Now we collect used bike inner tubes and fun fabrics from colourful era’s to make a simple line of carrying bags.

Flat Bags can be found all over the world…usually near someone who feels it is important to recycle.
