A Better Beach Bag

Make lighter footprints in the sand this summer with an eco-friendly beach bag. The Irving Bag is part of Keen’s Harvest Bag line. Like other bags in the collection, this one is made from a combination of brown haul bags and white polypropylene rice bags. Had they not been used for fashion, the bags would go to the landfill. Instead Keen recycles them by weaving the materials together beautifully to create a bag sized for all of your beach essentials.

With loads of pockets and plenty of room, you can stuff your organic cotton beach towel, change of clothes, cell phone, iPod, natural sunscreen, water bottle and even a recycled plastic sandcastle building set inside. The bag has a zipper closure on top so you can be sure the sand will stay out. Because the bag is made from 100% rice paper, it’s super lightweight and has a thin, crinkly feel to it that’s water repellent–perfect for a day at the shore.
