Ready for every adventure

The Elvis & Kresse Large Washbag is made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose and lined with waste parachute silk. Previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK, fire-hose makes a perfect wash bag. Strong enough to tackle the toughest conditions first time around, the hose has been re-engineered to protect your toiletries – the hose itself is obviously waterproof, protecting what’s inside but perhaps more importantly protecting what’s outside from leaky shampoo bottles and exploding toothpaste tubes..

Chosen as one of the best washbags by The Independent; the Large Washbag is available in red hose, yellow hose or black printing blanket. The latter version is made from reclaimed printing blankets combined with our signature decommissioned fire-hose, making a bold statement. The re-engineered printing blanket creates a visually stunning textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This iteration maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose versions as described above.

What can you fit in there?

It's a large washbag so you can fit pretty much anything you like but this is what Elvis takes: Tooth brush, toothpaste, razor, shaving brush and cream, soap, shampoo, hairbrush and nail clippers. Kresse manages to cram it a little fuller with some conditioner and moisturizer and obviously loses the shaving kit but you get the picture…

If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose. We recommend not more than 20 characters. The font used is Times New Roman.

The Fire-hose Collection

We fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose back in 2005 through a chance encounter with the London Fire Brigade. We took this lifesaving material home determined to breathe new life into it and save it from its otherwise inevitable end in landfill, and vowed to donate 50% of our profits to charity.

For over a decade we have been rescuing all of London's retired fire-hose by lovingly handcrafting them into sustainable luxury bags and accessories. Every year since, Elvis & Kresse have donated 50% of the profits from the Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.

Our Fire-hose pieces are more than just a collection, they represent a whole new kind of luxury. One that is sustainable, ethical, transparent, generous and kind.

Über Marke

Seit 2005 recyceln Elvis & Kresse Rohstoffe, verwandeln sie in luxuriöse Lifestyle-Accessoires und spenden die Hälfte ihres Gewinns für wohltätige Zwecke. Elvis & Kresse verwendet beispielsweise Lederreste von Burberry in Großbritannien, die sonst weggeworfen werden würden.

Fairer Handel: Elvis & Kresse-Taschen werden in England ethisch hergestellt. Sie zahlen ihren Mitarbeiter:innen einen Lohn über dem realen Existenzminimum. Das Label hat einen eigenen Produktionsstandort, der als Sozialunternehmen zertifiziert ist und die UK B Corporation gegründet hat.

Umweltfreundlich: Elvis & Kresse stellt Taschen aus wiederverwendetem Nischenmaterial her. Sie sammeln 15 verschiedene Abfallströme und verwenden sie wieder. Vom Feuerwehrschlauch über Lederabfälle bis hin zu Teesäcken. Die vollständige Liste findet ihr auf ihrer Website! Das Label reinigt auch ihr benutztes Wasser, denn sie haben ein vollständig zirkuläres Wasserreinigungssystem aufgebaut, damit kein Wasser den Standort verlässt. In ein paar Jahren hoffen sie, mit ihrem eigenen Wasser komplett autark zu sein. Alle Verpackungen werden von Hand in ihrer Werkstatt in Kent hergestellt (auch aus wiederverwendeten Materialien wie alten Drucktüchern und Fallschirmseide).

Lokal produziert: Die Kollektionen werden vollständig in England aus lokalen Materialien hergestellt.

Guter Zweck: Elvis & Kresse spenden 50 % ihres Gewinns an Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen. Ihre Wohltätigkeitspartner:innen sind die Fire Fighters Charity und das Barefoot College.
