City bags out now!
October 18 2010 – Julie Marabelle
These elegant and robust canvas shopping bags are the latest addition to our range. We've produced three different designs, using our popular 'paper cut' maps of London, Paris and NYC.
The bags are hand screen printed and made by Re-wrap in India.
Re-wrap is a social enterprise of female workers in the South of India who use entirely sustainable methods following fair trade standards.
The bags are designed for everyday use (I personally use them for carrying the children's toys, food and anything I need during the day when we're out and about and Simon uses them to go food shopping!). The strong shoulder straps are very comfortable and the reinforced padded base is perfect for heavy loads.
You can also store your valuables in the internal pocket.
The City bags retail at £19 / €22 / $30 (plus postage).
Let me know what you think!
