The Ultimate Eco Laptop Bag

This chic recycled wool felt laptop bag by Carga is biodegradable, highly durable, and a slammin’ choice for the meetings that matter. These fairly traded bags are designed by Mauro Bianucci and handmade in his native Argentina. They can be found at various shops around the world or online at Refinery 29.
Tom Bihn is into design. In his spare time he’s reading Cradle To Cradle by William McDonough and hiking in the wilderness…these are great signs. Tom’s most sustainable choice for laptops is an ultra sleek and sophisticated case with a molded cork exterior…behold The Archetype. Cork is both biodegradable and an incredible renewable resource, mostly sourced from the cork forests of Portugal. All bags by Tom are crafted by an adorable and skilled group of women at the Tom Bihn factory in Seattle, Washington. Adjustable shoulder straps made of soy in Montana (go American manufacturing!) can be ordered for your cork case or you can just slip The Archetype into your Reware laptop bag-you style magnet, you.
The solar powered Reware Juice Bag has many levels of coolness. One, you never have to run out of juice for your cell phone or MP3 player when you use this bag. Two, aside from the flexible solar panel, this messenger bag is made from recycled 2-liter soda bottles. Three, Reware bags are Made In The USA. Four, using solar energy means less coal and nuclear energy being used. Need I say more? Ok, I will…there are plenty of smaller organizational pockets and one large padded middle compartment for your laptop. They also look really cool and are an incredible conversation piece at any meeting. All your laptop-hauling buddies will be so jealous. All right, I’m done now.
