GreenSmart Laptop Sleeve Review And Giveaway Ends Aug 09

I feel privileged that we were contacted by the Green Smart company to review one of their innovative products. 
The company as a whole is incredible — they are working, one product at a time, to make the world, in their terms, “greensmarter”. The company, individually, is inspiring, as well — not only are their customer service contacts prompt in answering questions but their founders are so passionate about their product and their mission that they leave you feeling passionate about their cause, too!

Just a few of GreenSmart‘s business goals are to:

  • make great bags using green materials
  • use smarter manufacturing practices whenever they can
  • provide eco-concious ideas for customers and themselves (ie giving you ideas for how to be more environmentally friendly in small and big ways)

Perusing their website and talking with their employees illustrates just how well they are reaching their goals — the products they sell come from recycled plastic bags! You can see the whole process of turning plastic bags into fabric on their website (click here). Needless to say, it’s very impressive to think that this

turns into this

(the fabric)

and, eventually, this:

(one of their lunchbags)

I had the opportunity to review the Akepa Mac-13.5″ & 13″ sleeve. To cut to the chase, let’s just say that i love it! 

The inside liner is incredible soft and fuzzy and is made from 100% plastic bottles. 

The specially designed gusset allows my laptop to breathe, meaning i can put a hot computer into it and it will cool down quickly and not overheat

It is streamlined and trim, creating a snug perfect fit:

and the dual zippers literally seal the deal

They have a great new website makes browsing their innovative products easy — and you’ll come away from the website learning so much more about the environment that it’s like getting a little education just by visiting their online store. Each product comes complete with a description of what makes it green and even tells you how many plastic bottles it contains. 

GreenSmart wants to be proof that being green can mean being stylish, colorful and functional while being affordable, too. I think that they more than accomplish that mission. If you’re in the market for a new bag i highly recommend checking out Green Smart first–you can feel great buying green while not spending much more “green”!

WIN IT!

    my favorite product is the Bowhead wine tote because, well, you always needs something to carry wine in and this would keep them from banging around and looks much more stylish than a brown paper bag.
