TELFAR’s Nylon ‘Plastic Bag’ Debuts Online Tomorrow

The design repurposes New York’s banned single-use shopping bag into a durable, multifunctional accessory with nods to the brand’s democratic ethos.

Overview

  • The 100% nylon construction features double-lined waterproof fabric, ruched elastic handles and multiple interior pockets for water bottles, laptops and hidden storage.
  • Available in regular (fits a 13″ laptop) and jumbo sizes across 11 prints, the small tote is priced at $148 and the carry-on-sized model at $195.
  • Shoppers can purchase the Plastic Bag exclusively on TELFAR’s webstore beginning at noon Eastern on August 15, with in-store stock arriving at the SoHo flagship at 408 Broadway the following week.
  • Inspired by New York City’s banned single-use “Thank you for shopping” silhouette, the design turns a discarded disposable into a reusable fashion statement.
  • The launch follows TELFAR’s 20th anniversary celebration and builds on the Shopping Bag’s 2022 secondary-market success, reaffirming the brand’s inclusive, “for everybody” ethos.
