OUR DESIGNER
This is Guy. Visualizer. Dreamer. Designer. Some would say, minimalist. Zealous to fine details. He likes to draw a line but has no limits. He admires quality, so he incorporates it into his works, no compromises.
Guy was born in Jerusalem, Israel and moved to Tel-Aviv at that age people move to the big city. Pursuing his dream to turn his imagination into a craft, he went to study in Israel's most prestigious design school, Shenkar, starting with architecture and interior design and quickly moving to visual communications and graphic design. School took him on a digital journey through graphics, while his love for classic workmanship remained.
It was when he later moved to awe-inspiring New York City that Guy’s gusto pushed him to go back to his dearest and wildest ideas. Combining his passion for industrial and graphic design, sewing skills his grandmother taught him and with his zest for modern fashion, Guy took an old-school drawstring bag and turned it into a contemporary version formed as Red Thread Bag.
Guy’s pioneering idea was to form a newly designed drawstring bag with a neat basic shape as the outside shell, along with reused leather he carefully cut from second-hand coats, while the interior is a playful, surprising and inspirational print. Each Red Thread Bag is a one-off bag born in Guy’s studio space in Bushwick, Brooklyn and named after a Brooklyn street/neighborhood. He picks different fabrics from various places and fuses them into one unique bag so when you have it, you are the only one who does. This was his way to conceive an intimate moment, allowing a little secret to evolving in each bag he creates.

THE NEW DRAWSTRING
Do you know that one bag that’s too big for the gym, and the one that’s too small? You know how your laptop just doesn’t fit right? and those summer days you have to decide what’s not coming to the beach?
The new drawstring design is perfect for you and for all your activities. It is bigger than your common bag and has one big pocket to allow different uses and address all your needs. The outer shell is made of strong and heavy-weight fabrics of the highest quality, keeping the bag firm yet comfortable and most importantly, durable. When it’s empty, the bag is almost unnoticeable and feels different than your regular-sized backpack. When it’s in use, its size allows enough space to contain all the stuff you need, and then some.
You can use your Red Thread Bag anywhere, anytime and for anything. If you’re self-employed working with a laptop (up to 17”) but in need of a notebook with you; if it’s gym time and you have to fit a towel, sweats, sports shoes, that bottle of water and maybe even that protein shake; if it’s finally beach time and you have so much to take along with that book, sunglasses and probably shouldn’t forget your sunscreen; and even if it’s just mundane errands across the city so why don’t you get some of those groceries you wanted for dinner - Red Thread Bag will always be able to fit and hold your everything.
Red Thread Bag is made of 100% thick-cotton strong and durable strings. You can wear it any way you want - as a drawstring, hanging on your arms, or even as a tote or across the chest. Red Thread Bag is not just yours, it’s you.
