With the 10th anniversary of the tragic September 11 events just around the corner, there will surely be a slew of tributes and memorials created to celebrate the lives lost during that time, such as the Jen Mascali Remember bag. Although many of the memorabilia set to commemorate this date will be considered quite crude, this particular red leather tote is instead very meaning.
The designer herself lost her father, NYC firefighter Joseph Mascali, to the devastating September 11 event. Co-designed with her brother Chris, the Jen Mascali Remember bag will surely become a symbol of strength and love. Considering that the entire wholesale portion of proceeds will be donated to the 9/11 Memorial Fund, the Jen Mascali Remember bag is on its way to being just that.
