There's no waste here. This bag is made from recycled cotton fibers (scraps are collected and woven into new canvas material). A basic canvas lunch sack that's reusable and machine washable. A basic lunch sack with an easy to use VELCRO® like closure. Kid & grown up friendly. Why put up with all the "icky" that lives at the bottom of those nylon lunch sacks if you don't have to? Invite the kids to create their own bags with colorfast fabric markers. Printed on the LUN-604 100% Recycled Cotton Manufactured in India and printed in USA
