This college tote blends retro nostalgia with a unique design twist, its handle is repurposed from a vintage school uniform belt discovered at a local market in India. The color and design of the handle may vary, making each bag truly one-of-a-kind. The ’80s-inspired color palette features 70 hand-selected shades, creating a standout look. Made from recycled sturdy canvas, it holds its shape while developing a rugged, lived-in feel over time, especially after a little wash and some sun.  There also may be individual differences in the color of the vintage ribbon belt and texture of the fabric.

Since its founding in Japan in 2007, the brand has operated on a core conviction: that the most interesting materials are those that already have a life behind them.  Puebco works with salvaged and reclaimed sources — recycled military tents and clothing, decommissioned mail bags, truck upholstery, and repurposed parachutes — redesigned into garments, bags, rugs, and home goods. Made in small batches to keep overproduction minimal and each run intentional.
