The fashion industry is notorious for having high levels of waste, so the Sealand Gear travel bags have been created to help offer consumers a new option that has a more eco-conscious ethos behind it.
The bags are made from Recover material that is crafted from a blend of upcycled cotton as well as post-consumer PET bottles to ensure that what might otherwise be trash is turned into something new. Each of the bags are handmade in South Africa and stamped with the name of the person who made it to remind you of the process behind the product and create a more meaningful connection.
The Sealand Gear travel bags are also crafted without the use of liquid dyes or chemicals, generate no greenhouse gases to be made and are produced with over 50% solar power energy.
