▼ Description

For the minimalist

The Elvis & Kresse Faversham wallet is made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose, previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK. Named after the vibrant and creative Kent town where our workshop is situated, the wallet features 6 credit card slots, a section for notes, 2 additional sections for business cards and a zip pocket for coins.

Available in red hose, yellow hose or black printing blanket.

If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose. We recommend not more than 20 characters. The font used is Times New Roman.

This wallet is also available in our Fire & Hide range.

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.

Donating Fifty Percent of Profits made by Elvis & Kresse to Firefighters and Barefoot College

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.
