Our ReStyleTM Bracelets are made from recycled tire tubes that were otherwise destined to be incinerated (toxic!) or sent to a landfill. We work with local tire vendors in Bogota to source our tire tubes.  After they are collected, our artisan partners from the Fair Trade group Sapia clean and process the tubes to then turn them into incredible products. 

Tire tubes collected from truck tire vendors
Tire tubes are collected from discarded truck, car and bicycle tires - many have unique markings or textures that make each finished piece one of a kind.
Tire tubes thoroughly washed by hand and inspected
Each recycled tire tube is cut open and thoroughly washed by hand and inspected for quality
Drying tire tubes ready to be transformed
Yolanda and Dona Rosa stand next to drying tire tubes that are almost ready to be transformed into ReStyle products.
Final ReStyle products are hand-stitched, durable and shed water.
Final ReStyle products are hand-made and fabulous. The recycled tire tube is extremely durable, sheds water and wears well over time.
