The RE.STORE bags story: sustainability, inclusion, and a tough decision

Every day we make decisions.

Some seem small: choosing a fabric, a supplier, or packaging. But we believe that it is precisely these decisions that define what a brand is.

When we started thinking about the bags for the Well-Aging line, we never looked for the cheapest solution. We looked for a solution that made sense for LUR. That's how we met RE.STORE.

Much more than a bag

At first glance, it may seem like just a fabric bag. But behind it lies a much bigger story.

RE.STORE recovers waste from the Portuguese textile industry and transforms it into new products, made in Portugal by social partners from different backgrounds. Each piece is unique. Each fabric already had a story before it reached your hands.

It was precisely this way of working — with environmental and social impact — that made us want to create this partnership.

Why didn't we choose the cheapest option?

It would be easy to produce thousands of bags from an international supplier. They would probably be cheaper. But they would no longer tell this story.

At LUR, we prefer to work with partners who share our values and who give new purpose to the materials and people involved in this process.

If you want to learn more about RE.STORE's work, we recommend this conversation with its founder, Sílvia Correia, where she explains how each piece is born from a fabric that was about to be discarded.

When a mistake led to a new opportunity

While preparing the new Well-Aging line bags, we received the first prototypes and fell in love with the fabrics.

But there was a problem. By mistake, the bags were produced with smaller measurements and the Well-Aging routine no longer fit inside.

We could discard them. Or give them a new life.

We chose the second option.

There are only 4 of each model.

Since the bags are still perfectly functional, we decided to make them available at cost price: €6.

But there's a detail that makes this edition different from everything else we've launched: there are only 4 units of each prototype, each with a different fabric, and when they're gone, they won't be produced again. It's not a marketing phrase, it's literally all there is. Unless you ask for them!

✨ Ideal for travel, makeup, toiletries, underwear, accessories, and much more.

Choose your favorite fabric and help us decide which one should be part of the next Well-Aging collection.

A limited edition with a story to tell

These bags are not just a useful item for everyday life. They are proof that sometimes the most beautiful decisions arise precisely when things don't go as planned 💚🌿.
