Chris Benchetler x Static Climbing Artist Series is a collection of chalk bags inspired by artists from around the world. The way Chris sees the mountain and uses his creativity to draw first lines down a mountain canvas translates into how he works he creates his works of art. Each chalk bag will support a different cause, some will go to a non-profit while others will help aspiring artists share their work with the climbing community. This fabric is made from recycled canvas! For every chalk bag made nearly an entire water bottle is recycled to create the fabric. The fabric is more durable and helps keep plastic out of our landfills and oceans.
