La Blanca - Unisex Bomber Jacket - Upcycled Berber Rug - Sustainable Clothing

La Blanca comes from an upcycled Berber rug, handmade on a wooden loom. La Blanca is a white bomber jacket with patterns in red, and blue. It's also soft from the inside, with a 100% cotton lining making the jacket easier to pull over a shirt, breathable, and more comfortable to move in. For these reasons, sleeves are carefully lined in all jackets we offer.

The white colour is widely used in the Berber / Amazigh culture and is considered as a symbol of purity. Hand-to-heart, its unique weaving reflects the meticulous patience and attention to details of the Amazigh / Berber women, in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco.

La Blanca has also side pockets.

Did you know about the Amazigh people ?
The name Berber came from the Greeks, who generically called all North Africans “Barbarians”. To say the least, it's not the real name of the Amazigh people, thought it got widely spread and commonly misused. The name they chose for themselves was the "Imaghizen", which means “free people” or “noble ones”. Its singular form is "Amazigh"...Sounds close to Amazing :)
