pouch's Shop Policies
Welcome
We love vintage fabric and sewing and wanted to create unique bags which stood out from mass produced high street offerings. We are also passionate about encouraging people to use less plastic bags.We have had fantastic response to our bags and lots of positive feedback from our customers.
At Pouch we make unique bags from quirky, vintage and recycled material. Due to the fact we use vintage material, many of our bags are one-offs and the vast majority are limited edition.
Our bags are robust, practical and very stylish!
Individually hand crafted and skilfully sewn to a high standard.
You can be assured our bags have not been mass produced
Plastic bag facts:
We go through 150m plastic bags in the UK every week.
They will take 500 years to degrade in landfill.
They emit dangerous toxins into our soil and water systems.
They give off methane gas, which contributes to global warming.
They are a major litter problem and have a long lasting, damaging effect on our country’s wildlife.
Make a difference, refuse plastic bags at the checkout and use a Pouch re-usuable bag!
