Adopt a Bag this Black Friday

(Sorry, there is no Adopt-a-Bag campaign in 2024 as we do not have enough suitable bags available.)

At WAYKS we follow a ‘no-discount pricing’ policy’, because we want to offer the same fair prices to all of our customers – all year round. If we were to give discounts, we would have to raise our regular prices in order to make up for the loss of margin. Simply put: Someone else would have to pay the additional cost.

However, we received feedback from interested customers, who had been waiting for Black Friday, simply because they were not able to afford the full price of our bags at this point in time. And we agree: shopping for discounts doesn't necessarily equal mindless consumption. So we came up with an idea.

We collect bags with minor faults or production defects: samples, older models, used products, or products that did not pass quality checks. Those products are not immaculate enough to sell them at full price, but they are still great functioning bags and are simply too valuable to throw away. 

You can adopt these bags at a discounted price. In 2020 and 2021, we donated 100% of the revenue to Fashion Revolution ( future fashion forward e.V.) and in 2022 to Animal Welfare Charity Ein Freund fürs Leben e.V. in cooperation with petners.berlin. As WAYKS had a difficult 2023 due to reduced consumer spend accompanied by significant cost increases, we hope for your understanding that we decided not to donate the revenues this year as we need them to help covering the costs of this initiative.

*Please read the production descriptions carefully and think twice before buying. These products can only be ordered to an address within the EU. Return costs need to be covered by the customer. The products will be sent out by the 6th of December. If you include items in this order that are not from our "Adopt a Bag" collection, these will be shipped in a separate parcel, which is likely to be sent out earlier.

Bags up for adoption will appear on this page on Friday, 24th Nov 2023, at 8am CET. All will be available until midnight Sunday, 26th Nov 2023, unless sold out before.
