Description

In collaboration with @roachesofnyc, we present to you our Roach Bag Charm, featuring a smile and a blue NYC beanie. Add this little city slicker onto your bag and take a true New Yorker along for the ride.⁠ 

Look What Hitched a Ride!

The one New York City roach you'll actually want to take home! Meet our Roach Bag Charm, a cheeky little tribute to the city that never sleeps and its most infamous residents. Created in collaboration with Roaches of NYC, the whimsical world of artist JG Debray, this lovable little city slicker is ready to crawl into your heart and tag along on all your urban adventures.

Inspired by the city's wonderfully overlooked residents, JG began drawing his playful cockroach cartoons because he believed that, among all the pizza rats and city pigeons, roaches deserved a little love, too!

Handcrafted from natural wool felt, our surprisingly adorable cockroach features a sweet embroidered smile, playful antennae, tiny legs, and a bright blue beanie embroidered with “NYC.” Full of personality and unmistakable New York attitude, this quirky little companion brings a touch of city mischief to your everyday style.

From the sidewalks of New York to your favorite handbag, backpack, or tote, this charming little critter is ready to hitch a ride wherever the day takes you. A hilarious gift for proud New Yorkers, city lovers, and anyone who appreciates the wonderfully weird side of the Big Apple.

Lovingly handmade by women artisans in Kyrgyzstan using traditional felting techniques, this little roach proves that even NYC's most unlikely characters deserve a little love.

Only in New York!
