Upcycled ChiChi Convertible Crossbody Backpack

Vibrant, Eco-Friendly Versatility Packed with Mayan Weaving Heritage

Give your sustainable fashion collection a massive upgrade with our Upcycled Chichi Convertible Crossbody Backpacks. Masterfully handcrafted by indigenous Mayan artisans in Guatemala, this highly functional, multi-way bag is a masterpiece of slow fashion. By combining repurposed traditional Corte (Mayan skirts) with intricately hand-loomed Chichicastenango (Chichi) textiles, each piece tells a unique cultural story while appealing directly to eco-conscious consumers looking for fair trade boho sling bags and sustainable artisan backpacks.

Designed for optimal daily utility, this compact powerhouse features a main compartment measuring 8"H x 6"W with a generous 2" depth, making it perfectly sized to hold everyday essentials, wallets, sunglasses, and tech accessories without adding unnecessary bulk. The top of the pack tapers into a 6-inch fabric lead that connects to an adjustable fabric strap system equipped with heavy-duty plastic hardware. This flexible setup allows your customers to easily adjust the length on the go, seamlessly transitioning the bag from a comfortable, sporty crossbody sling to a classic, hands-free backpack setup—making it an ideal choice for retailers sourcing convertible crossbody backpacks in bulk.

Artisan Note: Because this bag relies entirely on upcycled, authentic Mayan clothing (Corte) and hand-loomed textiles, no two bags are exactly alike. Background patterns, stripe alignments, and the vibrant colors of the Chichi pocket embroidery will vary wildly from piece to piece. This completely one-of-a-kind nature is a premium selling point that retail customers love.
