back in the store -- ipad sleeves

made with 100% merino wool produced and imported from germany. the high density felt makes the sleeve durable and pill resistant. wool’s natural oil content makes the felt stain and water resistant. (if any spills occur just dab off the moisture with a wet towel or rinse lightly with water. it can be dry cleaned as well if necessary). wool felt is a natural, sustainable and biodegradable material which also feels great to touch. the dyes used to color the felt are oeko-tek certified (a testing process which certifies that no harmful chemicals have been found in the material). The leather is vegetable tanned which removes the heavy chemicals used in the traditional tanning process. handmade in the usa.

klean kanteen's new reflect bottle

klean kanteen has just released its newest bottle – the reflect. the bottle has no paint and plastic and is only made out of stainless steel, food-grade silicone and bamboo. even the klean kanteen logo has been laser etched onto the 18/8 stainless body so it won’t wear off with use

the bottle top is made out of one piece of stainless steel  with a food-grade silicon ring to make a watertight seal. in order to easily carry the bottle, a stainless steel bail was added replacing the plastic loop of the traditional bottle. finally a thin layer of bamboo was placed at the top to make a very distinctive finish to the bottle’s appearance

available in 2 finishes – mirror and brushed steel. both in stock at our store
