Animal Feed/Cement Bag Messenger Bag

Some bags carry your stuff. This one carries a past life.

Made from upcycled cement and animal feed bags, each messenger bag brings industrial grit and unexpected style into everyday use. The material is tough by design—built to handle heavy loads long before it became this bag—so durability comes standard.

Inside, the main compartment is padded to keep a laptop protected, with a smaller pocket to corral essentials like a phone or wallet. A full zipper closure keeps everything secure, while the flap with magnetic snaps adds an extra layer of coverage without slowing you down. Around back, a generously sized pocket (also with magnetic closure) fits a file folder or clipboard without a fight.

Finished with an adjustable strap for a comfortable fit, this bag is ready for commutes, errands, and whatever else the day throws at it—proof that hard-working materials clean up surprisingly well.

MEASUREMENTS: 15.5" x 13"x 2.5".

Each of these items is different. The images shown are sample photos and do not show the exact item you are purchasing. Because each is handmade using upcycled materials, you should understand that the product you receive will vary in appearance.

About Cement6

Jeremy and Susannah, the co-founders and designers behind Cement6, met while building a house in Haiti during college.

While in Southeast Asia, Susannah saw heaps of discarded cement and farming bags cluttering streets. She later met a talented woman at the night market who was transforming this trash into unique tote bags. An idea was born.

Working with artisans in Cambodia, CEMENT6 creates a sustainable, quality product while paying a living wage to over 40 men and women in Phnom Penh. This Nashville-based company also partners with groups that help the poor with basic necessities and teach orphaned youths the skills needed to lead independent, self-sufficient lives.
