A tote made from 320 gsm recycled denim, measuring 38 by 43 cm with a slim 3 cm profile, sized to take a laptop, a folder and daily items. The composition is 70 percent recycled cotton and 30 percent recycled polyester, and an AWARE™ tracer in the fabric validates the genuine use of recycled material.

Denim gives the bag a heavier hand and a visible weave texture that separates it from a plain canvas shopper, and the blue base colour works with white or light prints and with embroidery. Each denim tote saves 1318 litres of water compared with conventional production, and two percent of proceeds from every Impact product sold is donated to Water.org.

The look is closer to a fashion accessory than a giveaway, which suits brands selling merchandise rather than distributing it: music and media, coffee and food brands, retail loyalty programmes and university shops. It is also used as a laptop-carrying tote for employees in creative industries, and as a conference bag where the organiser wants attendees to keep using it afterwards.
