Military Supplies Recycled For Fashionable Purpose
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Sword & Plough is a fashionable line of bags and handbags all made of repurposed military materials—Army tents, parachutes, and laundry and sleeping bags.
Sisters Betsy, 22, and Emily Nunez, 25, began selling their bags through a campaign on the crowd-sourcing site, “Kickstarter”, and they’ve already raised over 100K (60K in the first three hours).
Offerings of the line include a tote bag, messenger bag, an “urban rucksack,” and an iPad case. The hardware, leather, gold buckles, and other materials, all come from near Emily's home in Colorado Springs.

Prices of Sword & Plough products, including this iPhone case, range from $25 to $289. The bags will eventually be sold through Sword & Plough's own website, but are currently being offered through Kickstarter at below-retail prices.
