From there came an idea, and the design that eventually became the original tote bag-backpack hybrid. But we’re not just about the product. Making eco-conscious choices becomes obvious when the solutions are practical, aesthetic, and make our lives easier. We want to bring these solutions to our customers, and the world. To do that, we combine aesthetic, practical, and eco-conscious design with high-quality, long-lasting materials. We choose to collaborate with small factories with good working conditions. Being a young brand, we are driven by the idea that functionally useful products improve our lives. We believe in the beauty of simplicity and the power of intuitive design. It makes us extremely proud to be ranked among the best products in the German and international design landscape. We are proud to share that as of April 2021 Notabag is a member of 1% for the Planet. Through this membership, we commit to donate one percent of our annual sales to environmental nonprofits.
