“There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. Yet that will be the beginning.”
- Victor Hugo
In keeping with the Ben & Bear eco promise, design inspiration is found in traditional Litema designs of the African Basothu tribe, where creation begins its journey with mother nature when Litema artists draw their ideas from their natural surroundings.
Ben & Bear eco bags take the next eco and socially responsible step on this journey by discovering that which is considered no longer of use and transforming it into a fashion and / or promotional bags. Supporting community business is a key focus for Ben & Bear, and all our unique handmade design features are sourced from community businesses. They are used to create colourful and elegant looking styles, each adding a unique personality to already individual bags.
The bag collections incorporate recycled tyre inner tubes, vintage clothes and belts, and handmade design features fusing them together to create fabulous individual eco bags - whether for your day to day use as a handbag or laptop bag, and for your corporate promotional product requirements.
“Business is the only mechanism on the planet today powerful enough to produce the changes necessary to reverse environmental and societal degradation.”
