The SAK is known for its affordable yet stylish leather creations. It’s abandoned its uptown girl image here for something that’s a little more hippie-chic.
This shopper is from The SAK’s eco-friendly SakRoots line. Its hand-crocheted body is crafted from an environmentally friendly combination of bamboo and viscose yarns. The rich colors come from all natural dyes made from non-toxic, azo-free pigments. My favorite is this deep sangria red, but if you prefer something a little more subdued it’s also available in black and taupe.
The soft body is tailor-made for overstuffing, so you’ll never find yourself short on space. The crocheted fabric is lightweight, so even when it’s packed to capacity you won’t struggle. The straps have the same crocheted finish, and en extra long drop, so they’ll feel heavenly on your shoulders too. That almost sounds like a license to splurge on a few more goodies at the mall!
It’s hard to criticize an eco-friendly bag, but I have to say the look is my biggest concern here. Matt & Nat and Nahui Ollin have shown us it’s possible to create really cute green accessories. But this looks more like something my grandma would make than a designer purse. At least the $79 price tag won’t break the bank!
