As eco-friendly goods blend with today’s fashion, companies such as GG2G are fast becoming icons for a greener tomorrow. While it seems a great deal of the commonality still hasn’t gotten with the program, it’s only a matter of winning over the hearts and minds of those we cross. Alison Grieveson and Dayan Moore are designers, friends and business partners who certainly “get it.”

GG2G Recycled Messenger Bag

GG2G stands for Green Goods 2 Give & 2 Get. Their handbags, along with belts and pillows, look awesome and keep tons of trash from piling up every year. The vinyl billboards provide a colorful bag base; bicycle inner tunes are the perfect material for detailing work, and recycled Kevlar helps to reinforce the corners. The green designers even recycle the water used to wash the vinyl!

GG2G estimates, that they have diverted thousands of pounds of material from entering landfills, an accomplishment to certainly be proud of. Urban to sophisticated, funky to chic, GG2G accessories are sure to suit the Zen, modern, eco-conscious fashionista in all of us. Keep up the great green work you guys.
