We heard through the grapevine that accessory founder Hamilton Perkins has come up with a collection of premium eco-friendly bags made out of 100% recycled plastic bottles.
The environmentally friendly bags are targeted to the socially conscious traveller on the go. Designed to be innovative, Perkin’s main goal was to re-engineer classic travel accessories by building his ideas from the ground up so as to give them transparency and impact.

So what makes Hamilton Perkins bags stand out from the rest? Well their collection of Earth transparent bags are not only made out of 100% recycled plastic bottles, they are also lined with re-purposed billboard vinyl, which means that each bag’s lining is different and unique. FashNerd loves that Hamilton Perkins Collection bags reduce waste levels, cut carbon emissions in the environment, and conserve water. What’s not to like?
Impressed? Well you will be pleased to know that the all-in-one bag, which converts into a backpack or duffle bag, starts at an affordable $95.00 USD. Take a peek at their official Kickstarter video below.
