junio 29, 2022

What is it about the summer that makes us want to go outside and have a good time with our friends? Maybe it is the nice breeze from the ocean, the sun kissed skin we all want, or the urge to start wearing shorts and dresses… Whether it’s one or the other, one thing is for sure: we all want to look amazing while enjoying the summer with our friends.

So here is an idea, why don’t you give your best friends matching backpacks? That way you can all hang out with your own customized accessory. Here are some reasons why a woven palm backpack is the perfect gift for you to give this summer:

They are handmade

Buying fast fashion is no longer the trend… It is better for the environment to choose products that are unique and, most importantly, not mass-produced. Our backpacks are perfect since they are made out of palm leaves by the hands of amazing Oaxaca’s women. The value and creativity really show in each of our products, such as the beautiful Marcela Backpack.

They are very stylish

Products like the Sara Backpack are great because they go with basically everything. But if you want to change the look of the bag, you can do it with its original handmade pom-pom. It adds a touch of color and joy to your whole outfit instantly.

They are one-of-a-kind

Because the process of making these backpacks is 100% artisanal, every final product is different, therefore, unique. You can be sure that no one else in the world will have the same exact bag, you will be the only one who will have the exclusive one-of-a-kind piece made from passion and effort.

They can carry everything you need

The inside of our Karina Backpack is perfect for storing everything you need, whether you are out on the beach, walking through the streets of a small town, or even going to school or work. It includes an inside pocket with a metal zipper, and it is compatible with a 12” laptop.

You support Oaxacan families

Last but not least, and maybe the most important reason you should give an Azul Mejicano backpack, is that the price you pay includes a donation percentage to help the Oaxacan artisans that produce these wonderful bags. Also, we donate a percentage of the price to a nonprofit in Oaxaca that helps orphanage children get education and a better quality of life! So feel proud that you are not only giving a gift to your friends, but also to the Oaxaca’s people who are in need of a better life.
