* Our products are created through upcycling, not recycling. During recycling, waste material is first destroyed in order to make something new from it (very high energy consumption). With upcycling, something completely new is created directly from the base material (in our case through manual work).

Where does the name EVI come from? 
Sissi's friend Evi has been with us since hour 0 as a huge supporter and REFISHED wearer. 

Is the EVI toiletry bag waterproof?
Water-repellent, yes. It stays tight against splashes of water. It is not designed for prolonged submersion or swimming.

Is every piece really unique?
Yes. Every cement bag had an individual life before this. Print, wear, and color gradients differ slightly from piece to piece.

Is my toiletry bag really handmade?
Yes, it is handmade by our seamstresses, such as Mom Sreyneth, in our social workshop in Phnom Penh and personally signed.

How do I properly care for my toiletry bag?
Wipe with a damp cloth, do not put in the washing machine, and avoid oils or creams, as these can lead to slight peeling of the color. 

What does my purchase have to do with the Mango Tree School?
At least 5% of our annual profit goes into our passion project "Mango Tree School" in Cambodia – with this, we finance the salary of teacher Rithy and the learning materials for over 90 students. A small way to give something back to the country where most of our products are made.

How quickly will my order arrive?
