So You Say You Want An Ecolution

ECOLUTION

Ecolution is one of those eco-brands that makes a lot of different stuff, some of which is kinda maybe not so cute. BUT, some of it is totally cute. So, fine, I’ll go through it and pick out all the best stuff, which is still more than most brands have to offer. Like their cute striped hat, and I’m strangely drawn to this hemp belt and this cute little sailor top and some of their bags are pretty good too. And it’s all really eco-friendly, not just kinda- they are totally dedicated to environmental sustainability.

Feats Of DB CLay

DB CLAY

To kick off what we have dubbed as "Eco- Centric Male Wednesday" we’ll get straight to it with this question: What is more important to a man than being green? Hmmm… yes, exactly- having some green. Thanks to DB Clay billfolds, a man is assured to be equally looking after both when sporting one of these wallets. Not only are they made from Tope, a synthetic fabric that contains no PVC or chemicals, is non-toxic, biodegrades, and is fabricated through a pollutant-free process, they are stylishly sleek (or artsy depending on which side of the track you're from) and will have you living large, for sure.

Too Cool For Pool

ELEANOR SALAZAR

Eleanor Salazar makes rings and earrings out of pool balls. I don’t know how she does it but I imagine it goes something like this: Young Eleanor gathers baskets full of used and battered pool balls and takes them to a magical wizard who strikes them with lightning that he keeps in a bottle, which he calls a vial- but who uses that word anymore?- then she picks up the perfectly divided pieces and sorts them into whimsical rings and earrings, which she then takes to the enchanted land of Etsy where she shops her wares to eco-friendly peeps who want to look good without making the planet look bad.

Correct me if I got any part of this process wrong.

Frickin’ cool:

Remnants of the Day


REMNANT

I stumbled upon this site whilst looking for yet more recycled scarves for a friend who has an insatiable desire for scarfiness, and fell in love with the adorable designs. Remnant makes all kinds of woolly accessories, including bags, headbands, and wrist cuffs!.Because no one should go around with a slightly chilly wrist.

And it's all out of reused and recycled cashmere and wool. So f-ing cute. So f-ing recycled.

Noon Solar, Grab a Bag of Sun


NOON SOLAR

Not only are these bags able to charge your phone using the power of the sun, they are also able to charge your fashion quotient by being attractive accessories. There are a few brands of solar power bags out there, but none so lovely and versatile as Noon Solar. These bags are made from sustainable materials, like hemp, with leather parts made using traditional, non-polluting tanning processes. And they have solar panels that you can plug your various lifetstyle devices into to charge while youre out having coffee on the patio of your favorite bistro. It’s one thing to have a gimmick, but to present something as useful and energy-saving as a solar panel, in a way that is so innocuous, is truly a step in the right direction. The easier it is to go green, the better. And Noon Solar makes it ridiculously easy!

Live Out Loud with Livity Outernational


Livity Outernational

Out of Topanga canyon comes a clothing and accessory company dedicated to sustainability… and stuff made out of hemp. They are political- with an outward message of environmental revolution and an inner message of putting their money where their mouth is by using organic and recycled materials, and fair trade practices to make their hats, scarves, bags and clothing. They use Straw, Hemp, Organic Cotton, Bamboo, Soy, Recycled Plastic Bottles, and Veggie-Oil-Based Synthetics to make a fashion statement that is actually really saying something.
