The Um Bag Tote by Josh Jakus was developed from two creative challenges: The first, to make use of the unique properties of wool felt – its density, texture, pliability, and strength. And the second, to transform a flat surface using only the simplest of operations.

Info: Grey wool felt from factory excess. 9.5 × 12.5 × 5 in. Hand wash or dry clean only.

Material: Grey Wool Felt – Dead-stock (Factory excess).
