Sword & Plough Bags

If you can repurpose something, then by all means, repurpose it boo boo. That’s what Sword & Plough is doing with their durable and stylish bags. Created by a female army intelligence officer, these bags are made from recycled military surplus such as parachutes, canvas tents and Gore-Tex sleeping bags, with the eco-leather being produced in Colorado. They are also 100% Made in America and the bags are sewn by U.S. military veterans transitioning into the civilian life. Now if that isn’t “American” enough for you, I don’t know what is. You’ve got a few days left to pick up your favorite bag through Kickstarter.
