This company does not honor orders

Earthpak is apparently in the habit of taking orders, accepting money and then not shipping products. Some complaints appear on their own website. I ordered a backpack from them well over a month ago. The response to my first email, weeks later, was basically "we're busy, you can wait." There was no response to my next e-mail. Now I have had to make a claim with PayPal. It is a shame that a compnay with such a good, environmentally-sound idea is run so poorly. It should not be offering products for sale that it cannot ship.

Made in the USA!

I love it that these products have less miles to go to reach USA consumers. Looks like university stores are a best -bet for finding backpacks and duffel bags in many locales. Here in Oregon, they can be found at both OSU and UO bookstores.

Recycled Plastic is Fantastic

Earthpak makes backpacks and bags from recycled plastic soda bottles. Their bags are good for back to school, for camping, or for any occasion. They shred plastic soda bottles and weave them into a durable thread, and then the bags are dyed in an eco-friendly method. They even treat the bags with Teflon to make them water resistant and able to withstand more everyday wear-and-tear. I have this yellow fanny pack and it's great for biking, and traveling. Since "waist bags" (aka fanny packs) have been showing up on the runways lately, I guess it makes me in style too. Oh! and it's 98% recycled plastic, which means that the only thing I can think of that's not receycled might be the zipper.
