What Fits Inside
Designed for the days when one bag needs to do it all.
handwoven by hand
one strand at a time
Each bag is woven entirely by hand over 20–40 hours, using traditional weaving techniques and 100% recycled plastic.
From the first weave to the final knot, a single artisan brings each bag to life from start to finish—an intricate process that reflects the time, skill, and craftsmanship behind every piece.
The Artisans
Every Tin Marin Woven Bag is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Oaxaca, Mexico, using weaving techniques passed down through generations. Working strand by strand, they transform recycled plastic into distinctive, functional pieces designed for modern life.
By bringing traditional craftsmanship together with contemporary design, we work directly with our artisan partners to create ongoing opportunities while helping time-honored skills continue through a new generation of products.
More Than a Bag
thoughtful materials
From recycled plastic and natural jute to leather and hand-embroidered textiles, we choose materials with durability, function, and craftsmanship in mind—creating pieces made to be used, carried, and enjoyed.
ARTISANS
We work directly with artisan communities and small-scale workshops across Mexico and Bangladesh, bringing traditional techniques into contemporary designs while creating meaningful opportunities for the skilled makers behind each piece.

TIN MARIN
Rooted in founder Marina Laparte's connection to Mexico and inspired by the extraordinary craftsmanship she encountered there, Tin Marin began with a simple idea: bring traditional artisan techniques into contemporary life through pieces people genuinely want to carry.
Founded in San Diego and shaped by a love of color, travel, and distinctive design, Tin Marin brings together modern functionality and generations of craft—creating bags and accessories made to stand out and made with meaning.
