Coats and gilets of the public service employees start a new life as bags for everyday life and leisure through gabarage upcycling design.
The cooperation between gabarage and the Wiener Stadthalle started five years ago: Since 2016, original upcycled products have been designed and manufactured from 300 square metres of advertising banners that adorn the façade of the Wiener Stadthalle as an eye-catcher. The inForm series of bags now puts used public service clothing in a new light.
inForm and many other handmade products can be found in the stores and in the gabarage webshop.
