Ecoist

Founded in 2004, Ecoist develops fashion accessories for the eco-minded individual. The company’s objective is to merge design with social and environmental consciousness to provide stylish, functional, and durable products that people will love to own. All products are made from recycled, organic, or earth-friendly materials, and are manufactured through a network of fair trade partnerships around the world.

Ecoist is mostly known for its line of handbags made from recycled candy wrappers, food packages, and soda labels and its growing list of partners such as Coca-Cola, AVEDA, and Cliff Bar, among others. However, over the past few years, Ecoist has been partnering with eco-minded designers to market new products made from recycled movie billboards, recycled soda-can pull-tabs, as well as organic fabrics.

At the higher end level, Ecoist Luxe is the company’s fashion-forward line featuring a gorgeous colours palette of Sapphires, Rubies, Amethyst, and confetti in a range of interesting and practical shapes.

As part of its commitment to environmental restoration, Ecoist plants a tree for every handbag sold.
