About us

Here at Dorset Bay we created our brand in 2019 after carefully considering our duty to source responsibly and use sustainable materials. Our canvas bags are made from durable 350gsm cotton canvas with leather trim on the handles and feature details.  Made from upcycled materials like canvas tents and tarpaulin, we recycle materials to avoid waste. The Dorset Bay collection is about creating great fashion that's earth friendly. Our stylishly designed bags combine functionality with a vintage edge with both French and American influences as well as our heritage British touches. All of our bags are truly an original! Some of these tents have travelled far and wide and carry the scars and bruises of use. Though we take great care to launder all of our materials and thoroughly clean them, each bag will sport its own unique marks of wear and tear. Slight variations, including stitch marks and minor staining on the canvas, are possible. These are the hallmarks of our upcycled products.
