DharmaObjects Recycled Jute Rice Bag Bohemian Hippie Backpack Hand Made Nepal

I absolutely LOVE this bag!! I got it for my niece for her birthday. We both think it's very important to shop ethically and this product was a great purchase. These bags are each unique and so well done by the artisan. Here is what they say about their product: "Room for everything, this bag is sure to please anyone who carries a backpack. Lined, drawstring inner shell and a "flap over" outside closure with a wooden button. 3 outside pockets; one in the front and one on each side also close securely with a wood button. Straps are adjustable and the backpack has a loop for hanging. Measures 18" deep (long) x 12" across x 7" wide. Each bag is uniquely made and will have variations in colors. Everyone falls in love with this backpack. What a great way to recycle jute rice bags. A quality backpack at a terrific price! Not colorfast. Hand Made in Nepal For Lungta Imports." I honestly expected this bag to be more fragile than it actually is. My niece has used it everyday since I purchased it in early March and it has stood up to some rigorous testing. Note that it is not for hiking or that sort of thing. She used it more as a purse/book bag. We love the colors and the style.

The only issue I have with this is that it’s rather large...vacuous on the inside. Some dividers would be wonderful...I assumed there would be no dividers....I really do love the bag.

I bought this for my son after he mentioned coveting a Nepalese type one he'd seen somewhere. Just based on that much info (his description was terrible--he's thirteen), I covertly bought this and crossed my fingers that it would be a hit for one of his birthday presents. He loves it. Loves the vibrant colors, the fact that it is of recycled materials--a patchwork of rice-bags, fused together in such a creative way. It really is beautiful and looks somewhat durable; has a decent liner in there. The little wooden button won't last long, but that won't take it down a star.

Love this bag! Super cute, roomy, and seems sturdy. like the color I received *updated review. it could not hold all that i had to carry for school and the straps ripped. i sewed them and it was fine but eventually the sides began to tear aswell, which could not be fixed. this bag is nice for aesthetics only and wont last carrying much weight

This beautiful backpack shipped so fast and when it came I was super happy and all my friends who were there when the package arrived were very jealous. Its large colorful and so gosh darn pretty. It has a nice earthy smell to which I really like. I also like they way they all are different it made it exciting to get in the mail because I didn't know what colors I would be getting. I'm still very excited and can't stop looking at it, it makes me want to travel. The material seems very strong too. So happy.
