Captain Ban-Plastic Explores Hemp Bags - The Perfect Solution to Plastic

Hi all you clever baggers, Captain Ban-Plastic here to tell you a little about hemp – one of my favourite eco-friendly materials!

Firstly, the green bit: Hemp is a sustainable, quick growing plant, which replenishes the soil and requires little or no pesticides. (It is the distant cousin of that other hemp plant.) Hemp fabric is durable, strong, and feels great - a fabric that improves with age, and is recyclable. It can be woven, printed, dyed and sewn into a huge variety of designs and it softens and develops even more character with use. I love it – it feels silkier as it gets older and looks like the coolest fabric as it wears over time.

Secondly – the range of bags from Sativa is incredible. They have some clever people who source this remarkable fabric and stitch it together into bags, hold-alls, laptop bags and a host of other useful varieties. All are practical, versatile, and have great details and hidden treats (though we will tell you all about them in the descriptions!)

Thirdly – Let’s not beat around the hemp bush. These bags are great value. Long lasting, green, fashionable, individual and unique - helping you be a modern, thoughtful, fashion and function conscious consumer. And showing that you hate plastic, just like me.

But you don’t have to wear the cape and put your pants on outside your trousers – that’s my job and I like it.
So if you are interested in a bag that is both perfect for travelling on the daily commute or for packing up your dreams and aspirations for the trip of a lifetime, get some hemp in your life and reap the rewards of natures greatest harvest.

Thank you for reading, this has been a Captain Ban-Plastic announcement, watch out for the next one!
