Ethnotek is a brand to keep your eye on. With their advanced, yet stylish bag range coming to us, they stand out as a unique brand, being the only one of its kind in the entire Australian market. So, who are they again?
Ethnotek is a global brand that specialises in bags, ranging from laptop or camera carry-bags, to travel bags perfect for your next holiday. What makes them special is how they are ethically sourced, utilising handmade textiles. Ethnotek works closely with areas like Ghana, Guatemala, Indonesia, India, and Vietnam to have traditional textiles hand-woven, embroidered, and printed. While some other brands may have similar practices, Ethnotek not only works with these cultures but integrates them in their products. This way, these beautiful cultures and traditional methods live on and can be appreciated by the rest of the world. Their wide range of bags is kept to a strict moral and ethical standard, allowing you to relax and not worry about unethical trading. Not only that, but with the vegan materials and chemical-free process, any guilt of having a stylish, yet productive bag vanishes.
As mentioned earlier, Ethnotek have a wide range. Whether you’re looking for a light day-backpack for errands, a large, heavy-duty bag for overnight trips, or even a new wallet, Ethnotek has you covered.
But sure, they’re ethical, but are they practical? That’s the most important aspect of any carry-bag. Ethnotek range of bags is water-resistant, a simple feature that truly makes a difference. No more racing through the rain in fear of ruining your new backpack, or worse, your precious items inside.
One of their most popular bags in the Ethnotek range is the Raja 30 Litre Backpack. And yes, that name isn’t a misnomer, the bag can hold up to 30 litres of luggage space, making this bag the perfect hiking or travel companion. But why stop there? With the addition of a water-resistant laptop sleeve, this bag can accompany you to school, university, or just on your daily commute. The Raja30 Litre Backpack includes various compartments and side pockets, designed for knick-knacks and other important travel accessories. There’s even a side pocket that’s the right size for your phone. And the best part – the pocket is lined with a soft, quilted material, making sure that expensive phone isn’t scratched or damaged during a particularly arduous hike or bumpy journey. Other features include a stretchy, mesh water bottle compartment located on the side of the bag. There’s even an area located on the bag’s side that allows for bulkier items to be clipped, such as a skateboard.
I’m not sure about you, but when I hike with a big, heavy bag strapped to my back, my shoulders tend to ache for days after. Ethnotek has somehow read my mind, however, and has included padded shoulder straps and air-mesh to keep you cool and comfortable.
With comfort, practicality, ethical processes and stylish designs, Ethnotek and their extensive bag range are a company to keep on your radar. To get your own visit Ethnotek.
