Using products that can no longer be used in order to create new ones, thus reducing waste and its environmental footprint, were the values that brought together Raeburn and The North Face this spring 2019. The two brands rallied their skills to design a collection of handmade eco-friendly accessories made from recycled equipment.

The North Face and Raeburn used scrap material from old tents to design three different bags available in bright colors, dominated by yellow: a tote bag, a drawstring bag, and the Rae bag. The three items feature the bright color along with the now-ubiquitous Raeburn slogan: "Remade, Reduced, Recycled, Raeburn."

The collection of bags "Raemade from old tents" is now on sale in limited edition from prices between £80 (€90) to £135 (€150) depending on the model chosen.
