The Firefighter's Carry-All
The Firefighter Carry-All is handcrafted, using decommissioned fire kit from the Isles of Scilly Fire & Rescue Service.
Carefully dismantled, redesigned and handmade in my workshop here on Scilly, every piece is unique. Every mark, panel and detail reflects a life spent in the service of the Islands.
The strong fabrics are challenging to work with, each bag takes many careful hours to create. Original features from the firefighter kit have been retained, making every bag unique.
A donation from each sale helps to support the Fire Fighters Charity.
Currently, availability is very limited; they are produced in small batches.
A standout piece of Scilly's working history
The original Fire & Rescue Service hi-vis panel takes centre stage, complemented by the jacket's original lining throughout the interior.
The bags are made almost entirely from reclaimed firefighting kit, with only heavy-duty cotton webbing straps and cotton bias binding added.
