velo CARRIE eco
Featherlight Foldable Backpack for Everyday Life and CyclingBalancing minimalist design and practical functionality, CARRIE eco combines style, versatility, and sustainability in one remarkably lightweight backpack. Designed to fold into a compact form, it can be easily stowed in a jacket pocket or under a bicycle saddle, remaining virtually unnoticed until extra carrying capacity is needed.
Whether for spontaneous shopping trips, visits to the local market, or everyday urban mobility, CARRIE eco is always within reach. Developed especially for one-way errands, it provides a convenient carrying solution whenever needed, keeping hands free and movement effortless. It is the ideal companion for style-conscious shoppers and urban cyclists alike.
Designed for Sustainability. Produced with Social Impact.
CARRIE eco is manufactured locally by Wien Work, an inclusive social enterprise that creates meaningful employment opportunities. By using recycled materials and regional production, CARRIE eco conserves resources, reduces CO₂ emissions, and keeps supply chains short, all while supporting fair and socially sustainable working conditions.
The backpack is made from ECOPAK®, a high-performance fabric composed of 100% recycled polyester. Its REPREVE® yarns are produced from ocean-bound plastics and recycled PET bottles, making the material both exceptionally lightweight and durable. At the end of its life cycle, CARRIE eco can be recycled again, contributing to a more circular economy.
The amount of ECOPAK® required to produce a single CARRIE eco corresponds to approximately 20 recycled PET bottles and saves around 450 grams of CO₂ emissions compared with conventional nylon fabrics.
