The Story
Elvis & Kresse makes luxury handbags from upcycled fire hose and other reclaimed materials, handcrafted in the UK. They're known for transforming discarded firefighter gear into durable, distinctive bags while supporting fire service charities through their business model.

Good to Know
Elvis & Kresse could expand transparency on factory-level supply chain details beyond the firefighter-turnout sourcing story, and formal sustainability certifications (B Corp, GOTS) would strengthen their credentials, though their upcycling model and repair philosophy already deliver measurable environmental impact.
About our research
Every brand on Oras is independently researched across five pillars: material quality, construction and craftsmanship, longevity and repairability, sustainability and ethics, and design philosophy. We use a consistent framework so you can compare brands meaningfully.
Oras does not sell products directly. We connect you to the brand's own site. We may earn a small affiliate commission, but this never influences our research or which brands we feature.
