The Ecowings bags and mission statement are really something unique. With her company, founder Angela wants to make a difference by contributing to the well-being of humans, animals and our planet. She decided to team up with Kapil, an Indian designer with a passion for nature and innovation. Together, they created these extremely durable and innovative bags that are made from the inner tubes of trucks which have ended up in India’s waste stream – thus giving them a second life. It turned out that upcycled rubber is a great alternative to leather and other animal skins. Another feel-good fact: Ecowings also offers fair employment and training to a team of 20 local artisans.
Ecowings ships from the EU. Because this item is being shipped from the EU to the US, import taxes, customs duties and other fees may be levied by the customs and carrier in the destination country. Unfortunately Shop Like You Give a Damn has no control over these charges and we cannot tell you what any fees may be as they vary per country. The recipient is responsible for paying these additional charges to the carrier upon delivery. You may check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be.
