Upcycled Jeans Shopper
$150.00
DETAILS
This upcycled shopper is made of old jeans collected in collaboration with Levi's®. After being cleaned, these garments were cut and sewn together to be transformed into a new, versatile and sustainable tote bag with a patchwork pattern.
Each upcycled Rifò shopper is a unique piece, born from the creative combination of different parts of old jeans. For this reason, the product you receive will most likely look slightly different from the one in the photos.
MATERIALS AND CARE
COMPOSITION: The composition of this garment cannot be determined exactly because it is made by creatively reusing different pieces of denim. However, typically the denim used is made up of 97% cotton and 3% other fibers, which is the standard minimum composition.
WASHING: To take better care of the upcycled Rifò shopper, wash by hand or on delicate cycle.
ORIGIN
Rifò's upcycled shoppers were made from old jeans collected in collaboration with Levi's® thanks to the donations from people at the store in Via Orefici 13 in Milan.
The production of these buckets was taken over by the Florentine social cooperative Flo Concept, which offers opportunities to people from socially disadvantaged backgrounds.

Environmental impact
The best sustainable materials are those that already exist. This is why we decided to create a limited edition of shoppers with the ** jeans fabrics collected in collaboration with Levi's®**, in their via Orefici 13 store in Milan.
** The impact of these garments is super limited: **
● Transportation from Milan, to Florence, to Prato
● Industrial sanitation
● Confection of the new upcycled hats
Who made it
The upcycled shopper bags were made by tailor cooperative Flo Concept. This Florentine organization combines a passion for fashion with a social mission to promote inclusion by providing jobs for those in need.
How it was made
Upcycling involves the conversion of existing items into fresh objects, merging creative ingenuity with production demands.
In this particular instance, the skilled artisans at Flo Concept employed the jeans generously contributed through the totem situated within the Levi's® store, resulting in the creation of 20 charming patchwork shoppers.
Social impact
For every purchase on our online shop, we will donate 2€ to the social impact project Nei nostri panni, cenciaiolis to be, which aims to create a school for cenciaioli, the artisans of textile recycling. Every donation will support the training of young people coming from the local immigrant reception centres.
