From Courier Uniforms to Fashion Icons: The DHL x ANGUS TSUI Upcycled Collection

Inspired by the journey of a DHL Express shipment, this upcycled collection breathes new life into retired DHL courier uniforms, transforming them into stylish, functional, and sustainable pieces. Drawing from the logistics process and the iconic packaging designs, we’ve reimagined these elements into three unique, upcycled designs. 

By repurposing items such as waterproof combi jackets, raincoats, cargo trousers, and quilted liners, we’ve created products that not only stand the test of time but also reduce waste. Original trims like zippers are incorporated into the designs, ensuring a circular approach for easier deconstruction and recycling.

 

Design 01 / DHL Upcycled Voyager Shoulder Bag

Crafted with care and a commitment to sustainability, the Voyager Hobo Bag is a testament to our innovative spirit. Made from retired DHL combi jackets, this bag features a water-repellent coating in DHL signature “Red” and “Yellow”.

The front pocket proudly displays the iconic DHL logo, with zippers and trims repurposed from original uniforms. The adjustable strap allows for versatile wear, whether over-the-shoulder or cross-body, making it perfect for any occasion.

Design 02 / DHL Upcycled Versatile Sling Bag

The Versatile Sling Bag combines sporty style with practical functionality, crafted from retired DHL combi jackets, raincoats, cargo trousers, and quilted liners. 

This bag, featuring our signature colors and a water-repellent coating, is designed for the modern, on-the-go individual. It includes multiple pockets and adjustable straps, providing a stylish, hands-free way to carry your essentials. The iconic DHL logo and repurposed zippers and trims add a touch of our heritage to this contemporary design.

Design 03 / DHL Upcycled Journeyer Wallet

Compact yet capacious, the Journeyer Wallet is made from water-resistant retired DHL uniforms. This wallet is perfect for everyday use, featuring a front pocket with a notable zipper and a main compartment with multiple card slots. It also includes a detachable wrist strap for convenience. 

The Journeyer Wallet embodies the perfect blend of practicality and sustainability, keeping your essentials secure and stylish.
