This competition is no longer taking submissions
We've got an Elvis & Kresse Tote bag to give away, worth £184. It’s a classic design lined with reclaimed parachute silk and it smells absolutely amazing (a sweet, chocolaty, caramel scent like a posh candle). Enter now by filling in the form below.
Elvis & Kresse are two of the most remarkable and lovely people we know. They reclaim “heroic” materials that are destined for landfill and create beautiful, useful things out of them.
If you wander past one of our shops you might see one of the lovely, new A-boards they’re making for us out of reclaimed scaffolding planks.
Elvis & Kresse got started by making belts, bags and wallets out of London Fire Brigade de-commissioned fire-hose. Their range of bags and accessories are based on classic designs, giving them a timeless appeal. And as each length of fire-hose is slightly different, each product is unique. Their fire-hose products have been worn by the likes of Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth Paltrow and featured in the pages of Vogue.
Q&A with Elvis and Kresse
1. How did you and Elvis meet (just being nosy)?
We met on a boat in Hong Kong. He was dressed as Superman and introduced to me as Elvis - I didn't have any other choice after that!
2. What came first for you: a passion for design/business or for sustainability?
For us the material, the problem, always comes first. We find things that have no other hope, they are destined for landfill; everything we do after that is geared towards rescuing that material and solving that problem.
3. What was the eureka moment for Elvis & Kresse?
We first discovered the hose in 2005 and instantly knew it was too beautiful, too durable and too heroic to die in landfill.
