Check out these UM Bags by Josh Jakus® , a Berkeley, California based designer dedicated to making experiential connections between form and function.

UMs developed from two creative challenges: The first, to make use of the unique properties of pressed wool felt, and the second, to transform a flat surface into a volume using only the simplest of operations.

When unzipped, UMs lay completely flat for dry cleaning and easy storage — and when zipped, they become inspired forms with inherent functionality.

UMs come in one quintessential color: gray. That’s because they’re sewn from two layers of industrial wool felt made from factory excess. As a natural material that might otherwise go to waste, most would consider it eco-friendly. All UMs are cut and sewn in the San Francisco Bay Area.

  • Perfect for larger accessories, and other necessities
  • Convenient carry handle
  • Unique design and style
  • Unzips flat for convenience

I reckon the UM Tote ($115) and UM Carry ($95) are great to tuck into your suitcase for that special night outing… an extra tote to carry around without taking up much space!
