the folks at relan are hard at work reinventing style ("re" + "élan"). the minneapolis enterprise cleans, irons and sews tennis court-sized billboards (that would otherwise end up in landfills) into hip, functional, eco-savvy sacks. handles and bases also come from reclaimed material: car tires.

relan recycles eight tons of water- and tear-resistant highway signs a year to create these one-of-kind bags. you'll never look at a billboard the same way again!
