1970s–1980s Manchester Bus Moquette Washbag

Bring a touch of Greater Manchester transport nostalgia into everyday life with this washbag made using the iconic SELNEC and Greater Manchester Bus moquette pattern from the 1970s.

This bold orange geometric design was a familiar sight on buses travelling across Manchester, Salford, Bolton, Stockport, Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Ashton under Lyne, and surrounding towns. For many, it recalls daily commutes, school journeys, and trips into the city centre during a defining era of the region’s bus network.

The strong repeating shapes and vibrant colour palette reflect the confident design style of 1970s public transport interiors, created to be both durable and instantly recognisable. Today, the pattern is loved by transport enthusiasts and fans of retro and mid century design alike.

Practical as well as stylish, this washbag is ideal for storing toiletries at home or on the move, adding a nostalgic touch to everyday routines.

Care Instructions

Moquette is super-duper tough. If it gets a bit dirty, a good firm brush should do the job... For something really stubborn try some carpet cleaner. If in doubt - drop us a line.
