♻️ What You Can (and Can’t) Upcycle with BirdieBlue

We LOVE giving old gear a second life — but not everything plays nicely with a sewing machine 😉 Here’s a quick guide to what we can (and sadly can’t) turn into bold, adventure-ready bags.

  • ✅ YES PLEASE — We Can Upcycle:

    If it’s soft, sewable, and has lived a good outdoor life, we’re probably into it.

    • Ski & snowboard jackets
    • Puffy coats & insulated layers
    • Snow pants & bibs
    • Softshells & fleece
    • Tents & sleeping bags
    • Technical outdoor fabrics
    • Old banners, event flags & gear with stories

    Basically: if it can be stitched, we can probably flip it into something awesome.

  • 🚫 HARD PASS (for now…)

    As much as we love all gear, some things just don’t play nice with scissors and sewing machines.

    • Skis & snowboards
    • Ski boots
    • Poles
    • Helmets
    • Hard plastics or metal-heavy items

    And yes…we would love your 1990s, 190cm straight-edge Rossis, truly iconic, but we haven’t quite figured out how to turn skis into tote bags yet.
