Dante Beatrix: Eco-friendly backpacks for kids
Dante Beatrix makes an assortment of bags. We're especially fond of their eco-friendly line. You know how we do.
The "Big Kid Eco Pack" is a sturdy backpack created with nylon that is entirely constructed from recycled plastic drinking bottles. The trim is naturally biodegradable canvas.
According to the website: "Each of these packs keeps seven 16oz bottles out of the environment. Big enough to hold books, notebooks, lunch and a pair of sneakers." We suspect that comic books, video games and assorted non-educational items will fit in there nicely as well.
There are three different designs for kids (it fits ages 5-10) to choose from. The themes are peace, love and recycling, which in our humble opinion seem to go together swimmingly.
Dante Beatrix is based in a cozy Manhattan office and is run by three designers and a canine (their pampered mascot Trixie). Their products can be purchased directly online or via one of these fine stores.
