Firefighter Sews New Life into Used Fire Hoses by Making Tool Kits


Mr. Jake Starr is a firefighter in Louisville, Kentucky, who has a mind for creativity and loves to sew. He uses old materials from around his firehouse and gives them a second life by creating unique and durable handmade items and selling them in his Recycled Firefighter online store.

Jake sells wallets, toiletry bags, and tool bags, but our favorite Recycled Firefighter product is the rugged Tool Roll made from heavy double-jacketed firehose canvas with edges sewn using rescue webbing. It's 18"x8" and has slots for nine tools.
