3) Zero Waste Sustainable Starter Kit
This zero-waste sustainable starter kit makes plastic-free living a cinch at home or on the go. An eight-piece bamboo cutlery set, kitchen dish brush, pot scrubber, adult bamboo toothbrush, and expandable French market bag are included. All are reusable and made with eco-friendly materials.
4) Men's Natural Rubber Sandals
These natural rubber sandals are made from soft, sustainably grown latex that conforms to your feet—so you’ll almost feel like you’re barefoot. Inspired by 5, 000 year-old traditional Indian wooden sandals, the angled strap hugs your foot to give a secure fit and prevent that flip-flopping sound, too. For every pair bought a tree is planted in Africa, suited to the specific needs of a community.
5) Collapsible Travel Cat Crate
This collapsible cat crate is a portable solution that’s as easy to transport as it is to stow. The foldable design pops up in seconds and is big enough to fit two cats, providing a secure and stress-free space while you’re traveling.
