Wastepaper stream turns fashion corner. The  BAGABOO in a chic recycled paper get-up. The entire front panel is made from recycled paper. Yes, paper. The paper is a waste product from an industrial printing process. It is cut into strips, folded and then coated with an environmentally friendly PE (polyethylene)  to give it structure and water-resistance. It is woven into a fabric-like material with a unique look and feel. A difficult, time-consuming process, but for a good cause. We fell in love with the material and with its goal of reducing and re-using waste. We combined the recycled paper front panel with our plum colored ripstop material to pick up some of the colors in the recycled paper. The result is a sweet BAGABOO that will turn heads on your bike or on your shoulder.

All the other features of our regular BAGABOO are retained, with the exception of the zippered flat front pocket. We couldn't work that into the front panel without compromising the integrity of the recycled paper panel. This 2012 model features a completely detachable shoulder strap, a larger, tensioned top opening and our new and improved FlipClips for easy attachment to your bike's rack.

PLEASE NOTE: Since we are using a recycled material it is difficult, if not impossible, to match colors from one batch of bags to the next. We try, but we can only try and not guarantee.  Some variation in color shading will occur from time to time. But hey, we think that's part of the recycled paper's charm.
