Rising Tide Fair Trade Bags
Remember when little Joey Mandlebaum convinced you to give him your roast beef sammy in exchange for his freshly picked booger? That was what you might call an unfair trade.
For something a little more beneficial to both parties, check out Rising Tide Fair Trade bags. Given the Co-op America seal of approval, RTFT is committed to bringing people- and planet-friendly stylish products to the masses.
The cheerful carryalls are crafted by women in India (who get paid a fair wage) from vintage kantha (a running stitch that forms or outlines decorative motifs) quilts and cruelty-free brown suede. Choose from a selection of colorful one-of-a-kind totes in pretty floral and geometric prints. For $220, you can pick your favorite.
And then you’ll be the fairest of them all.
Available online at rtfairtrade.com.
