I would cry if one of my suits became a Recycled Suit Tote. I love recycling, but these things cost money, after all.
The Recycled Suit Tote really is an innovative idea, though. This suit is 100% recycled, down to the leather straps which are made from old couches. Each tote was hand-tailored by an artist, which makes these totes even more legit. Click the links to your left if you're interested in picking up one of these uber-professional handbags.
