Printing Blanket Range

Our Printing Blanket collection is made from reclaimed printing blankets, rescued from the printing industry, and combined with our signature decommissioned fire-hose. The rescued blankets are re-engineered to create a visually stunning, black textile that is strong and beautiful to the touch. This range maintains all the design features of the full fire-hose versions.

FIRE-HOSE IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES

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 Printing Blanket collection combines the rescued printing blankets with our signature fire-hose, using the strong and heroic fire-hose in high stress areas and for trim, straps and handles.

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

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 Printing Blanket and Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.

Testimonials

I LOVE my bag! The colors, the feel of it, the personalisation.... all of it!

Thank you all so much for the care you put into every part of the journey

Mary Beth

I am very enthusiastic about your products and your cause, and I recommend your website to anyone I can. The recipients of the gifts, whom I purchased your products for, are over the moon about them. I assumed, vainly, they were using your products so frequently out of kindness to me (as the gift giver) and when this was pointed out I was corrected that, "No, I LOVE this bag it's my favorite thing."
