Jump The Hedges is technical bag making company based in Belfast in the north of Ireland.  Jump The Hedges was founded by designer Síofra Caherty after spending many years working in the fashion industry, from couture fashion with ThreeAsFour in New York to technical sportswear with Adidas in Germany to costume breakdown with Game Of Thrones in Belfast.  

Síofra was unable to find a sustainable and ethically made bag for carrying a yoga mat and so Jump The Hedges was born.  Reclaimed materials such as truck tarpaulin and aeroplane seat materials are sourced from all over Ireland and then industrially washed in rainwater. Each bag is then hand cut and stitched on a vintage Japanese Juki sewing machine in a small workshop at the foot of Cave Hill mountain in north Belfast. 

Each and every bag is totally unique.

Bags are sold via Bag Drops which happen 3 times per year. Newsletter subscribers get first access and previous Drops have sold out in as little as 30 minutes. Sign up to our newsletter for upcoming Drop notifications here.
