Denim Bag - Florian

Meet the Florian Denim Bag.

Florian is crafted from dark blue recycled denim, combined with lighter tones from the inside of the jeans. This contrast creates a unique interplay of shades, giving the bag a distinctive, textured look that stands out while still feeling effortlessly wearable.

Each bag starts as a single pair of jeans. I cut the denim into strips, transform them into yarn and crochet the entire piece by hand. The result is a soft yet durable bag with a rich, dimensional finish. Florian feels especially smooth to the touch, adding an extra level of comfort to its structured design.

Finished with gold hardware, this piece leans slightly more elevated while still keeping a cool, modern edge. It’s versatile enough to be styled for everyday wear or paired with more dressed-up looks.

Inside, the bag is lined with cotton that is hand-sewn into place. A special detail is the inner pocket, made from the original back pocket of the jeans - preserving an authentic element and making each bag even more unique.

The size is practical for daily use and fits your essentials comfortably, including a 0.5L water bottle.

The Florian Denim Bag is one of a kind. No two will ever look the same.

Care Instructions for your Bäxie Bag: 

Taking care of your Bäxie properly will help it stay beautiful and last longer. Follow these detailed instructions, and remember what not to do!

Washing:

• Use a gentle hand wash program on your washing machine. Set it to low temperature (20°C/68°F) and low spin speed. If you’re unsure, wash the bag gently by hand with lukewarm water and a mild detergent.
• Do not use fabric softener - it can affect the texture and durability of the material.

Drying:

• Do not tumble dry. Instead, let your bag air dry in a shaded area. Open it up and hang it upside down so that water can drain out. This also helps the bag keep its shape.
  
• Avoid placing your bag near heating devices like radiators or vents. The heat can cause the material to lose its original shape.
  
• Do not dry in direct sunlight. Too much sun can fade the colors and weaken the fibers over time.

Spot Cleaning:

• If there’s a small stain, gently dab it with a damp cloth and a tiny bit of mild detergent. Don’t scrub hard, as this can damage the yarn.

Storage:

• Store your bag in a cool, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.
  
• When storing for a longer time, stuff the bag lightly with tissue paper or a soft towel to help maintain its shape.
  
• Keep your bag away from rough or sharp objects to avoid snags or pulls in the crochet fabric.

Ironing and Chemicals:

• Do not iron your Bäxie. The heat can damage the delicate yarn.
  
• Avoid using bleach or any harsh chemicals. These can cause discoloration and weaken the fibers.

Before Washing:

• Remove all chains, rings, or decorations from your bag before washing. This prevents damage to both the bag and the hardware.

By following these simple yet important steps, your Bäxie will stay gorgeous and functional for years to come. Treat it with love - it’s one of a kind! 💕
