Remember those striped beach tents and caravan awnings from our childhood? We bottled that nostalgia in recycled straws and cement sacks, weaving them into vibrant fabrics that shout sun-kissed adventures.

With a shared dedication to ethical production and love for the Australian landscape, Ensemble and Places We Swim worked with a manufacturer in India who uses ex-consumer nylon waste, turning them into fabric in beautiful bright colours. 

Introducing the Beach Tote: your Ikea tote's cooler older sibling. Six extra pockets keep wet towels separate from sandy toys, with enough room for a family picnic and then some. Throw it over your shoulder, sling a little one on your hip, and conquer the day.
