THE DESIGNER
When was the last time you saw parts of an 18-wheeler truck sashay down the runway at a fashion show? Well, you're about to if Heather English of Boulder Colorado, owner-designer of English Retreads has her way. Heather has been making a reality of "On the Road Again" since 2001 by designing and producing stunning handbags, book bags, totes, backpacks and belts from discarded truck and tractor inner tubes rescued from landfills. The original tubes probably have over 60,000 miles on them before Heather adds her classic designs and gives them a whole new life.
