Green Guru Gear

Out of pure curiosity, I went looking for some cool climbing apparel to see what was out there these days. I ended up coming across this cool website called “Green Guru”, a concept developed by Ecologic Designs – a group of outdoor enthusiasts devoted to creating products and gear from recycled and reclaimed materials.  They have a line called the “Climbing Rope Series” which consists entirely of products made retired climbing ropes! Their Climbing Rope Series consists of:

• Rope Bracelets
• Chalk Bags
• Key Chains
• Dog Collars
• Dog Leashes

For a long time I had a yellow LIVESTRONG bracelet that lived on my wrist. It finally broke a couple of months ago, which I was somewhat upset about seeing as I wore it more for personal reasons than for the “fashion craze” that swept the world in 2004. I have been keeping my eye out for something different, as I wasn’t particularly interested in picking up another LIVESTRONG bracelet because the darn things were just too big for my wrist. I came across these rope bracelets and knew I had to have one.  To add icing on top of the cake, you can order them in different sizes!

Ecologic Designs has a lot more products and gear that they have made from organic and recycled materials – everything from bamboo t-shirts to messenger bags made from discarded highway billboards (so cool!).
