Printed canvas backpack handmade with recycled materials, mainly advertising banners, tarps and dog food bags. Recycled materials are unique, protect our environment and invite us to shop responsibly.
Because each product is individually handmade from recycled materials, creations have the same style and design, but no two are exactly alike. Prints are unique. When you buy the Ficus Backpack you agree to receive any of our available prints.
"Swahili" is devoted to recycling in the broadest sense of the word. They aid young people who have grown up on the streets in the process of rebuilding their lives. By recycling used and donated banners, tarps and dog food bags, they have become a full-fledged business that is now creating jobs.
