The Étape brand has created an exclusive limited collection of hand-painted bags as part of a charitable campaign in collaboration with the "Boundless Possibilities" foundation.

Recently, during hostile attacks, Odessa suffered significant damage, including its historic center and iconic architectural landmarks. The damages have become a personal pain for every Odessite.

The Étape brand, founded by native Odessans, Olena Bezikovych and Maxym Stanislavskyi, decided to contribute to fundraising for the restoration of the affected buildings by launching a charitable campaign in collaboration with the "Boundless Possibilities" foundation. They created an exclusive limited collection of hand-painted bags.

The collection is based on one of the most popular Étape models – the Mimi Bag. Each bag will feature globally recognized symbols of Odessa, including the Vorontsov Lighthouse, a fragment of the Sabaneyev Bridge, the doors of Mikhail Reva's work on Lanzheron, fragments of the Opera Theater, and the colonnade.

No two bags will be exactly the same; each one will be unique. The talented artist Oksana Karpenko, originally from the Khmelnytskyi region, was involved in creating the artwork.

The initial collection will consist of the first 10 bags, and in the future, anyone interested will have the opportunity to purchase a custom-made bag. The production time will be 3-4 days. All proceeds will be donated to the restoration of the Stolyarsky Music School.
