Our One of a Kind Recycled Travel Backpacks
There is only one of you... so why should your bag be any different?
Each of these recycled backpacks are one-of-a-kind! Made from fabric scraps and burlap (jute) pieces recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. The imperfections you find help tell this incredibly human story between the fabrics, the seamstress who made it, the family who received the rice, and you. As you use this backpack on your daily adventures, you will add to its incredible story. There will never be another backpack just like it.
The backpacks shown here are examples similar to the backpack you will receive, but because they are all totally unique, your bag's exact look will be a surprise. Pure excitement, and we promise that you'll love it!

For Every Item You Buy,
You are Feeding a Family in Need
This bag provides 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of rice, which provides the rice needed for 12 individual meals. Based on a typical family of 4 in India, eating rice 3 meals per day, this gift lasts one day.
In order to make hand-delivery possible, others will be contributing to the same family you are. We deliver 25 kilos of rice per family at a time, which provides for about a month supply of rice!
Recycled=Eco Friendly
Handmade from used fabric scraps and jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly. Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap. We keep discarded rice bags out of the landfills and give them new life! Buying this bag helps preserve the earth's resources! Good karma. Good vibes.
