CAPEBAG,

2-TONE

Christian and Lan wear 2-tone CAPEBAG



 

CAPEBAG is made of plant based plastics. Oversized elegance with a flat tube collar that serves as a hood. This part has handles and folds back into itself to be carried as a plastic bag- without plastics!

CAPEBAG 2-tone black and white is signature look. The middle seam elevates the minimalist garment to a sophisticated second skin over any outfit.

The workers behind the manufacturing of CAPEBAG have been trained in the packaging sector and this production is a new experience- they enjoy making something fashionable, which could be seen as packaging for people.

Biodegradable stickers function as a repairkit

The round, biobased stickers with organic glue and ink, are normally made for bio food products. They are custom made for CAPEBAG and carry the same compostability certificate as the other material (EN13432). They do a great job as sophisticated Repairkit for CAPEBAG. 



CAPEBAG comes with seams that are welded with ultrasonic technology and therefore waterproof. The biodegradable sheets clearly appear more organic than regular plastics.


“Smells so good! My son plays superhero with CAPEBAG.”
