Tiba + Marl X The Jacksons: Behind the collaboration
Having spent a lot of time in Notting Hill in our twenties, Lydia and I always loved popping into The Jacksons boutique and browsing their slogan bags and unique brands, and clever - always fun- accessories. For us, their store is an iconic part of All Saints Road - it has a vibe all of its own that chain stores and online stores can't emulate! We love their large jute bags, they are perfect for travel and chucking it all in - and we are suckers for slogans - we love the creative, playful tone of their collections.
For us, the chance to link up with the brand and create two exclusive bags that are perfect for parents was a lovely, creative opportunity - they make the perfect tote for Mum and baby essentials, and we already can't wait to take them on our Summer holidays.
Not only the perfect Summer vacation bag - but even better for Maternity leave! A classic slogan from The Jacksons but created in our own exclusive colourway - with a natural base, and khaki wording.
Celebrating motherhood, this is the perfect baby shower, Mothers' Day, or push present. The slogan with a black base and natural wording has been created especially for our collaboration and is only available from Tiba + Marl.
It’s been so exciting working with The Jacksons who are an ethical brand and learning how they take a responsible approach to materials and the planet. These exclusive styles are also handmade by artisan women in rural Bangladesh, giving them independence and empowerment by being paid directly, which in turn gives them more choices regarding their daily lives and the future.
As with the majority of The Jacksons' products, our collab totes are also made from jute — a plant that is completely rain fed and requires no additional energy. Making jute products virtually carbon free. The jute plant starts absorbing carbon after only a few weeks of growth, thus acting as a carbon sink.
With empowering parents and sustainability at the heart of what we do, the collaboration with The Jacksons felt like the perfect pairing. We especially love working with female led, UK based brands - and hope our T+M customers enjoy the collaboration as much as we do.
