Customer writes about their Recycled Canvas Hat from Paz Apparel

Greetings Melinda and all...

 

I just got my new and absolutely awesome PAZ hat in the mail today...   Wow!  It is soooo cool. 

Thank you very much for bumping up the size ... It is just right.   I love my hat and will use and enjoy it often.

 

I am including a photo of myself as you requested...

My name is Dan ... I live in San Diego...  I am a single father of two fantastic sons.  I work for the US Postal Service during the day and am an artist as well...

I create retro style robots and ray-guns from found objects... Junk art.  I love the challenge of looking at something that is trash to some and giving the objects new life within the sculptures I create.

I am known as "Tinkerbots" on the internet...  I share images of my works as Tinkerbots on flickr.

 

My two son's and I love to ride mountain bikes, fishing and the art of rock stacking at the beach....  When I happened across your hats, I said to myself I absolutely have to have one... The fact that they are a beautiful recycled product with a rich past made it even more unique and special to me...  

 

Many thanks again my friends and I do look forward to purchasing one of your travel bags soon...

 

Kind Regards~

Peace

Dan

Customer Feedback for the New Recycled Canvas Journey Weekend/Overnight Bag

We just started offering this new bag at Paz Apparel our online store that sells recycled canvas hats and bags. And feedback so far is terrific. Here's one customer at the Denver airport about to embark on a trip to Vancouver wearing his extra large Journey Weekend bag. It's the perfect size for a quick trip. In this customer's bag he tells us he had a bunch of clothes, a lap top, travel document wallet, iPhone and toiletry bag.

This bag is fully lined in a heavy black material, and the trim is recycled vinyl billboard canvas from Brazil. Extra wide strap, and buckle and Velcro closures make this bag a hip update and compliment to our Metro Messenger bag.

 

 

Thanks to Commerce with a Conscience for featuring our recycled canvas bags!

The uptown bag was featured on Commerce with a Conscience as was our newest bag the Hobo! We are very excited about this because we are so passionate about our designs and the fact they are made in an ethical way. Check these guys out please but you can also visit our site too of course.

People have been asking for this recycled canvas hat in chocolate brown and it's finally available!

When we launched our recycled canvas hats bags and totes business a few years ago we had a photo of a chocolate brown outback hat that everyone loved. Unfortunately we didn't carry it at the time. We are pleased to say we now have this very popular hat available in an eco friendly dye. It's called the Carpe Diem, check it out and let  us know what you think.

Helpful Resources...Vegan Fashion Consulting and Compassionate Eating Guide

I stumbled upon two site yesterday that I thought were worth mentioning.

First, the Happy Cow compassionate eating guide. In it authors cover the basics such as the production methods of leather, wool and silk. You may not like what you hear but knowing the truth about the origin of your favorite leather belt or your silk comforter or even your down pillow is important especially if you want to be a part of the solution. In any case there are many alternatives such as the vegan leather used in all of my recycled canvas hats and bags and totes.

And speaking of alternatives, I also stumbled upon, Ginger Burr's Total Image Vegan Fashion Consulting site. Ginger shares her Vegan Fashion secrets which includes 'green' buying tips. She also list several links to manufacturers and retailers who are getting into the 'green' and vegan swing of things.

Happy hunting!

I love Jay Brannan's voice...so I set it to a slide showcasing my Vegan fashions!

Jay Brannan is a young muscian living in New York...marketing himself on youtube. In any case his voice is lovely so I thought it was perfect to showcase some of our vegan fashions. I'm playing right now so that's why all the posts, twitters, and facebook status updates. ha!
