This soft-sided briefcase, made from sustainably harvested hemp, can hold your books, laptop, or legal sized papers, and can even be worn as a backpack. It has two zippered compartments, a flap pocket with an organic cotton liner, a key keeper, and a back sleeve pocket. It measures 15 x 12 x 5 inches plus the flap pocket, and comes with or without leather trim made from the hides of sustainably managed cattle.
The Artisan Gear line of hemp products is handcrafted from sustainably harvested hemp grown in Eastern Europe. Hemp requires no dangerous pesticides to grow, and produces 3 times more fiber per acre than cotton.
Hemp fabric is stronger than cotton, and more resistant to abrasion and mildew. Artisan Gear uses 16 oz. hemp canvas to make these attractive bags and organizers, and double-stitches all the seams for strength.
Sustana leather, used for trim, is made from hides of sustainably managed cattle. The cows are raised with no growth hormones, steroids, or antibiotics, with pesticide-free feed and water, on pastureland that is managed on a rotational grazing system to reduce the impacts of overgrazing. The hides are tanned with chlorine-free, water-based dyes and finishes.
