Description

Keep it safe

The outer skin of the Elvis & Kresse Laptop Case or Folio is ethically handmade from genuine decommissioned fire-hose and is extremely hard wearing. Previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires and saving lives around the UK, fire-hose makes a perfect case to protect your valuable laptop. The hose itself is obviously water-resistant, protecting what’s inside from those unexpected spills. There is also an additional layer of closed cell foam, and the lining is reclaimed parachute silk, offering excellent protection for your documents or laptop. There is one internal pocket.

Available in red or yellow fire-hose. Please note, all hoses are unique, which means your piece is too! If you would like more or less markings, or writing, just drop us an email or include a note in your order.

If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose. We recommend not more than 30 characters. The font used is Times New roman.

We also offer a Limited Edition 'Print Room' version of our Folio / Laptop case. Made from reclaimed printing blankets combined with our signature decommissioned fire-hose, this limited edition, sustainable laptop case really makes a statement. The re-engineered black printing blanket creates a visually stunning textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This version of the case maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose version as described above.

THE FIRE-HOSE COLLECTION

We fell in love with London's decommissioned fire-hose back in 2005 through a chance encounter with the London Fire Brigade. We took this lifesaving material home determined to breathe new life into it and save it from its otherwise inevitable end in landfill.

Our Fire-hose pieces are more than just a collection, they represents a whole new kind of luxury. One that is sustainable, ethical, transparent, generous and kind.

Printing Blanket Range

We also offer a Printing Blanket version of our classic pieces. They are made from reclaimed printing blankets, rescued from the printing industry, and combined with our signature decommissioned fire-hose. The re-engineered black printing blanket creates a visually stunning textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This version maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose versions.

50% of profits donated

Since 2005 we have been rescuing all of London's retired fire-hose by lovingly handcrafting them into sustainable luxury bags and accessories. Every year since, Elvis & Kresse have donated 50% of the profits from the Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.
