Passchal - high-end luxury accessories

passchal-yellow-patent-clutch

Design with the envronment in mind - that’s the vision behind Passchal. Started by ex-welder Ken Kobrick and inventor Angela Green, Passchal decided to take on the creative challenge of using discarded tractor tire inner tubes and converting them into high-end luxury accessories. They incorporate leather trim to add colour and texture but ensure that all leathers are by-products, vegetable-dyed and chrome free. Their inner tubes are collected  in Virginia, Ohio and Georgia and undergo a rigorous but enviromentally friendly multi-day cleaning process. To date Passchal has recycled aproximately 26 tons of inner tubes. This Patent Yellow Clutch is large enough for a cell phone, keys and listick (w: 12.2” x h: 3.7” x d: 1.75”) - with double magnet closure. $220 USD.
