Gasps for TELFAR’s nylon-made Plastic Bag
TELFAR is a Black-owned, genderless fashion project founded in 2004 by Telfar Clemens in New York City
“NYC banned plastic bags in 2020, the same year we exited the fashion industry. The city switched up because the bags are disposable — we left because we never were — but plastic is forever.
This bag doesn’t just serve — it delivers. To everyone: takeout, make out, cookout. Waterproof and 80 proof. Saying everything without saying anything. All with a smile. Thanking you for shopping. It’s the bag you put the other bag in, or the bag you put in the other bag. Carrying regardless of what it carries.
TELFAR’s take on the staple New York sidewalk silhouette — double lined with ruched elastic handles, tonal seams, and a generous interior. It features two deep side pockets that fit water bottles, a zip pocket, slit pocket, and hidden stash pocket. This bag is not single use. But for use by singles. And couples. Keep away from children.
Available in 11 iconic New York TELFAR prints and 2 sizes. The regular — big enough to hold a 13’’ laptop and daily essentials. The jumbo is carry-on sized. That’s right. For a plastic bag.”
