Bluelounge has released an eco-friendly new line of laptop and iPad bags called the Bonobo series. The accessories are crafted from a unique cloth made from woven recycled PET.
It’s amazing to think that old plastic soda bottles can be converted into this material which is hardy, yet soft to the touch. The bottles are collected and cleaned before being crushed and melted down into a liquid form. This goo is turned into long fibers which are woven together and treated with a waterproof coating.
The versatility of this woven material can be seen in the diverse but small five-piece collection. The Bonobo line features a backpack, a tote bag, and a messenger, as well as technology cases in two different sizes. The pieces are finished with aluminum buckles, quick-release levers, and locking keyhooks. Neoprene padding in each accessory helps to protect your technology, while ergonomic straps make carrying the bulky bags more comfortable.
Considering the technological innovations employed, the Bonobo accessories are reasonably priced between $44.95 and $139.95. All too often we pay a premium for eco-friendly designs, but these bags are comparable to any crafted from manmade materials.
