Hot or Not? Ornj Bags by David Shock

Ornj Tote Swing, $40

These bright orange bags caught our eye from way across the room at this past weekend's Chicago Green Festival. The totes, Ornj Bags, are made of reused costruction fencing, salvaged from abandoned fields and work sites.

 
 

Also available is a $15 removable recycled sweatshirt liner to protect your valuables.

They look like they'd be scratchy if you had to carry one for a long time.

Bag is cool.

But a velcro-closure pocket made out of recycled sweatshirts? For sale? Seriously?

It's great for the beach and at farmer's markets.
