Terraclime 100 (shown)
Provides durable, soft-sided protection for cameras and digital gear. All bags in the series are constructed of 100% post-consumer, recycled Cyclepet® exterior fabric, using the equivalent of 2½ bottles in the smallest model to 22 bottles in the largest while conserving landfill, energy and crude and refined oil. The spacer mesh, providing a lean yet sturdy layer of protection, is 60% recycled PET. Hook closures and zippers are comprised of plastic regrind. And adding to the eco-friendly construction is a targeted cause: a portion of the proceeds will go directly to Polar Bears International.
