Million's of bike inner tubes are thrown into landfills each year, and will remain there, hurting the environment. The Laser Cut Rubber Tote re-uses bike inner-tubes to create a stylish and practical bag. The Laser Cut Rubber Tote is 14" by 17" and is made out of bike inner tubes. It features an interior pocket made out of red fabric, a zipper, and handles. The bag is designed with a pattern that is laser cut, allowing the red lining to show through. The contrast between the black material and the bright red flowy pattern also gives it a dramatic flare.  The interior red lining adds a pop of color and strength to the bag. The handles are attached with gromets, adding another design element as the silver metal contrasts the red and the black in the bag.  The bag is durable, and will be able to withstand a significant amount of weight and use due to the materials used.
