The Ethnotek Travel Blog Delves into Culture and Process

— March 7, 2012 — Social Good
In conjunction with the release of their new messenger bag collection, a SocialBusiness.org favorite has released the Ethnotek travel blog, which features exciting stories and photography from the team while on the road.

"The new travel blog is an attempt to increase transparency between our customers and villagers and this section gives you a detailed look into the lives, techniques and just how much culture goes into each and every bag," Founder and Creative Director Jake Orak told SocialBusiness.org in an email.

Indeed, the Ethnotek travel blog is an invigorating source for customers to educate themselves about the people and process behind the product. What's more, it's a refreshing change to a fashion and textile industry fraught with sweatshop scandals.
