Women's issues, sometimes we just have to buy a new bag. Because your laptop no longer fits in your old one or you are ready for a more feminine/larger/smaller/red/brown/whatever copy. And since you can no longer come up with an unethical brand (those days are really over), we give you the best green bag brands. For yourself and for your mini.

Matt & Nat
To start the list immediately with the most affordable stylish bags. Matt & Nat is animal, design and planet friendly. These vegan bags have the right colors and models every season. And, while it is already a beautiful eco brand, they are still taking sustainable steps. For example, the nylon lining is made from recycled plastic bottles. Matt & Nat

VocationalMY
The name may not mean anything to you, but it does hitmodel You will certainly know My Paper Bag. This model, made of sustainable and ecologically tanned leather, has been a success for seven years. MYOMY now has many more beautiful models. Made of leather, yes (sorry vegans), but made of cows that have had a nice life. At MYOMY the focus is on fair trade and building a better life for the makers of the bags and their families. MYOMY

Denise Roobol
This young designer from Rotterdam has managed to create a serious brand in a short time. Vegan and stylish. Wait, that's what we said about Matt & Nat too. Well, so does this brand and it also comes from the Netherlands. A little chauvinism doesn't hurt. Especially the light pink mini bucket bag we find to eat. Denis Roobol

Wonders
This brand of (leather) handmade bags from Mallorca has made a special selection of pineapple leaves. Huh what? The leaves of the pineapple plants are a waste product of pineapple production and can be transformed into the material Pinatex. This is not only natural and sustainable, but it also looks great. By the way, Maravillas leather bags are colored with natural materials, making them free of nasty toxic substances. Wonders

IIWII Cork
We already wrote earlier about the sweet little shop they have in the Jordaan. They taught us that cork is one of the cleanest materials there is. It can be removed directly from the tree and then grows back naturally. IIWII Cork has (serious) models such as the (classic) laptop bag but also more exotic models to make a fashion statement.

O My Bag
Another one known from Bart. And winner of the Sustainable Leather Award. Now many vegans will look at us angrily for daring to put leather in the green list. We know it was a sweet cow, but some people just want leather. And we prefer leather that is made with as few chemicals as possible and contributes to better living conditions for the makers. That's what O My Bag does. With great success for years. O My Bag

Ree Projects
These fall under the heading of slow luxury. The Dutch Ree Projects produces handmade bags made of high-quality leather that is made without nasty junk. So better for the planet. Ree certainly has the most expensive bags on the list, but they promise to last a lifetime. Durable it is due. Ree Projects

Secrid
We'll smuggle one. These are not bags but can go in your bag. Or the pocket of your jeans, that also fits. The smart card holder from Secrid ensures that your cards skim safe can be stored. The Secrid is available as a case that only fits your cards or as a mini wallet that can hold some money and the like. Secrid's green secret it lies in production in the Netherlands where the environmental impact can be taken into account and production in a social workshop. Secrid

Tip for Father's Day. Just saying.

 

Fjällräven
The practical bag that still makes you fashion conscious. Especially with the Kanken you can come to a party. There are nice new colors every season. Although the intention is of course that you choose one then forever goes along. Entirely in accordance with Fjällräven's sustainable principles, which focus on having the smallest possible impact on the environment. We recommend the sleek one all black and the king-Kanken made from recycled plastic bottles. The latter is also available for mini-humans. Fjällräven

Blafre
For Mini it is completely self-evident that sustainability is chosen. No chemical mess on the delicate skin and a green future for the planet. The Norwegian brand Blafre has all kinds of useful items for kids. Lunch boxes, bedding, drinking cups and also cute bags. Blafre
