Description:
The Coffee Tote is made from reclaimed burlap coffee bean sacks andremnant fabric that would otherwise have become agricultural andtextile waste! WeBe Bags collects the coffee sacks from local roasters,grocers and restaurants. The tote features zippered top closure and oneinside pocket for your little things. Each Bag is unique: depending on what coffee beans are being used locally, and what fabric bolt remnants are supplied, each bag is completely different that the last.
OAT COUTURE...because, some people just get it.
WeBe Bags are imported from around the world and hand-stitched, just for you! Their collection of agri-cool bags are for people who get it...planet-friendly folks who know cool when they see it.
WeBe Bags are made from recycled flour, sugar, feed and coffee bean sacks from around the world, and some are even sourced locally from places like Millcreek Coffee Roasters. The people at WeBe Bags still get sacks from the island where their business idea originated, from a leaf-smoking, Rastafarian friend named “Dreadly,” with dreadlocks down to his backside. He and “his women” collect the bags, wash them in the Caribbean Sea and dry them on a clothesline before shipping them to Park City. The sacks are then hand-sewn into WeBe bags. The bags are a “feel-good” product: they are recycled, can be traced back to small island communities, and provide incomes for a group of stay-at-home moms who work as seamstresses in Utah.
WeBe Bags was born on the sandy beaches of the Grenadine Islands in the Lesser Antilles chain of islands in the beautiful Caribbean Sea.
One balmy day while watching Rastafarian ladies sitting under coconut trees, stitching away with needle and thread, a vision was born. Before their eyes, used flour sacks were transposed into sturdy market bags. Then and there came their inspiration to start a business - and WeBe Bags ("We be bags, mon!") was born.
Through WeBe bags, we hope to introduce agri-cool fashion to the masses - and make industrial chic obsolete! Come share their vision...come experience true cool!
