Recycled Military Surplus Bags from Jack & Marjorie

Jack and Marjorie, based in Toronto, Canada, create a line of bags out of recycled military surplus materials. After looking at an old box of family photos from the 1940's, the couple were inspired to create a variety of women's bags that reflect the look and feel of that era. This handsome messenger bag (left) is made with heavy cotton tent canvas, a flap of military surplus wool blanket, and leather. The cute 'digby' bag (below) is made with recycled duffle bags. Each 'digby' bag is assembled with mixed and matched pieces and even bears the name patch that was on the original duffle bag. I love the military twist and the fine detailing the couple build into their designs.
