This is a #wastenone product

YU is delivered with a cotton cushion, filled with small scraps of materials and thread, mixed with natural unbleached cotton filling, which has the role of keeping the shape of the product during handling and transport. We created this cushion to give a utility to the scraps of materials that we carefully collect, to avoid using conventional materials to maintain the shape of the bags (paper, plastic) and to make sure that the Flicka bag keeps its shape at home, when you store it.

MATERIALS: PINATEX / Cork / Cotton
