This jute shopping bag is part of a “commerce with a conscience” initiative by the Vancouver-based retailer, Old Faithful Shop–which is to say that proceeds from the purchase of one of these bags go to support the impoverished Bangladeshi women who craft them. It would, of course, be helpful to know what percentage of the proceeds actually go to these women, but as far as good looking objects go, one could do worse than this meticulously handsome carry-all.
