"We love recycled products, especially when they’ve got a story as clever and a look as cool as these bags from Portland, Oregon-based Looptworks."

Instead of going to landfills, Southwest’s airplane seats are being repurposed into products that are creating opportunities for thousands.

Portland design company Looptwork’s new Luv Seat Line brings new meaning to the phrase “fashion on the fly.” Repurposed from old airline seats, not only do the blue and brown leather bags look good, the process used to make them is good for the environment.
