CSN stores are one of my favorite places to shop online. They have over 200 different websites where you can buy practically anything that you need! I was recently asked to check out their laptop messenger bag line and write about what I found here on my blog.
This site, like most of the CSN store sites, has an easy to use function on the main page’s tool bar called “Go Green”. All of the eco-friendly options available from that site are shown with the simple click of a button. That makes it easier for those of us trying to live our lives in an earth friendly way to shop. I really respect a site that offers their customers easy and clear ways to find exactly what they’re looking for. There are many green options for you to change your lifestyle with your buying power.
When you click the “Go Green” button and look for laptop messenger bags, you get quite a lot of cool options. One of my favorites was this recycled sail messenger bag by Ella Vickers. Her company saves over 20,000 yards of sailcloth every year from landfills and upcycles them into gorgeous bags. She is inspired by her days of sailing as a first mate on an American Cup winning boat. Her first bags were made by herself and for herself. She carried them to the regatta and people around her literally bought them right off of her arms! Each bag is slightly different depending on the sail it came from. This gives your bag a sense of individuality and personality that anyone would be happy to pack around.
Another green option available on CSN luggage site is the Tubus bag made by the Krejci company. The founder began by making bags out of grey industrial felt but then received a bag of old deflated innertubes as a gag gift at Christmas. This joke gift sparked her creativity and the new line of innertube bags was formed! This material, much like the sailcloth, proved to be extremely durable and practical. It also gives the bags an eye catching look. I love products like this that speak of their previous lives. It will lead people to ask you about it and open up the door to talk about recycled and repurposed materials. This is a great way to help deliver the message of changing choices to promote a healthy planet through simply carrying around your messenger bag!
I look forward to another review opportunity with CSN stores in the upcoming days. Maybe next time I’ll be reviewing eco-friendly toys or eco-friendly cookware. That’s right, you can buy that through a CSN store too! Definitely worth checking this company out.
