I am always on the hunt for more sustainable items to use in my everyday, day to day activities (although the most sustainable would probably be to use what I already have!). While on the lookout, my spying phone sent me an advertisement on Instagram to a company called, "Out of the Woods". The items instantly caught my eye and I ended up purchasing a tote bag, called the Iconic Shopper, for everyday use, a backpack to carry all my supplies to school (for work! As I am a teacher and seem to carry a lot with me daily), and a cooler bag, called the Seagull, that I thought would be perfect to use at the beach when we finally can again or to hold my grocery items. When my bags arrived (super quickly I might add, in about two days), I was so incredibly happy with my purchase and the quality. The tote bag is very large and deep with very comfortable straps. The cooler has a nice pocket on the outside for a phone or keys and insulation that seems of very good quality.
The backpack includes a small front pocket, straps to carry the bag by hand or as a backpack, and a padded laptop pocket.
What makes these bags super special are that they are made out of paper! They make the bags out of what they call a supernatural paper that you can actually wash to clean! According to their website, supernatural paper is made from paper from slow growing trees and bonded with an allergen free latex. The material is sustainable as they harvest, source, and replant responsibly. They also state that their process returns 93% of the water used in production and the other 7% evaporates, so no water waste either! The bags are very stylish as well as roomy! There's a style that is sure to please everyone and they range from totes, backpacks, coolers, and lunch bags! Highly suggest you check it out if you are into sustainability and style!
