Designers, Cartoon Characters Collaborate On New Eco Bag Line

By Laura Feinstein on July 31, 2009

While cynics would be quick to say that every Tom, Dick, and Harry is jumping on the eco/sustainability bandwagon these days, it’s still possible to be surprised by who’s attaching their name new green products. Most recently punk-fashion Queen Vivienne Westwood, famed cartoon rabbit Bugs Bunny, and jeans innovator Evisu, are just some of the brands working with AmazonLife to create a line of bags whose proceeds will go to promoting the importance of protecting the Amazon Basin from further deforestation.

According to Treehugger:

Caoutchouc, linen, jute, coconut, straw, denim, camouflage army shirts, dresses, and old foulards have been used to create the five-piece collection, one that, according to a press release, brings “forest lifestyle and respect for the environment into daily urban life.”

You can view all five of the bags and purchase them at AmazonLife.
